@julianc excuse the error.

The gist being it is only viable with a 'fudged' tariff.

@jamespa I have two EVs as well as solar PV and an ASHP. 
It is a balance. The 27/7p per kWh means we average 19p/kWh like you. 
I’m also working with Havenwise (whom I introduced to Mars and this forum) to improve my current SCOP of 4 to hopefully 4.2 or focus more on night time heating. 
My point is: you need a smart meter; you need to understand your electricity demand pattern & volumes; can you shift the demand? Then investigate the best tariff to meet your demand. 
Since I wrote my first note, I’ve read the MSE blog on the price changes & it does seem madness to reduce gas prices. Hey ho.

@diverted-energy afternoon. I still disagree with the term. The electric price varies throughout the day, every half hour and it’s known the day before. So typically, it is cheaper at night and more expensive at 4:30 - 7:30pm. The dynamic tariffs or the fixed variable tariffs take this into account. Anyone can get a smart meter. I do accept that there are still some people on pay as you go - which is practically criminal in 2025. But we must design the system for the majority and support the financially challenged.
