An annual energy bill for a typical household will fall to £1,923 in October under regulator Ofgem’s new price cap.

I honestly think it’s appalling that they’re continuing to let these energy providers make obscene profits from us.

    Definitely for baseload generators. Perhaps slightly different for peaking generators etc. Average for the sort of units you propose to sell, I guess.

      This is a fair point - peaking is more complex, especially if we’re considering batteries where their generation cost is going to include probabilistic opportunity costs - ie how confident are they that the price won’t fall further and/or if this is the peak of the spot and best time to sell.

      But yes, over the decades you’d be looking to run to utility for, you’re looking at blended averages to calculate the return.
