electricity bill london example

vo
While there's no single example bill that applies to all Londoners, here's a breakdown
to give you an idea:

Structure:

Account Summary: This will show your account details, billing period, and total
amount due.
Charges: This section will detail various electricity-related charges:
Unit Rates: This is the price per kilowatt-hour (kWh) of electricity you use. As of
April 2024, the average for London is around 28.62p per kWh [USwitch].
Standing Charges: This is a daily fee charged regardless of usage to cover
infrastructure costs. The London average is roughly 55.35p per day [USwitch].
Other Charges: There might be additional fees depending on your supplier, like
VAT (Value Added Tax) or government environmental programs.

Example Values (assuming averages and a typical month):

Electricity Used: 300 kWh (This can vary significantly based on household size and
habits)
Unit Rate: 28.62p per kWh
Standing Charge: 55.35p per day (Approx. £16.60 for a month)
VAT (20%): Applies to all charges except standing charge

Calculation:

Electricity Used (kWh) x Unit Rate (p/kWh) + Standing Charge (monthly) + VAT

(300 kWh * 28.62p/kWh) + £16.60 + (VAT rate x (total excluding VAT))

This would be a rough estimate, and the actual bill will vary depending on your specific
usage and supplier rates.

Tips:

Check your supplier's website for a sample bill layout.

Use online tools to estimate your electricity usage based on your household size
and appliances [energy suppliers in London might have such tools on their
websites].

Consider switching suppliers to find a better rate – comparison websites can help
[e.g. USwitch].

I cannot directly show you an image of a London electricity bill due to privacy
concerns. However, I can describe what a typical one might look like.

The bill will have your account information, billing period, and a breakdown of charges
at the top. The charges section will detail the unit rates, standing charges, and other
applicable taxes.

I understand you'd prefer an image for reference. While I cannot show you an actual

reference number ?

Afficher les suggestions vo

The reference number on a London electricity bill can depend on what you're referring
to:

Invoice Number: This is typically located near your mailing address and is used for
registering with your supplier's online portal or specific programs.
Meter Point Reference Number (MPRN): This 11-digit number identifies your
specific electricity supply point and won't be directly on your bill. You might need it to
switch suppliers or manage your account online. You can find your MPRN by
contacting your supplier or using the "Find My Supplier" tool online.

In summary:

Look for the invoice number on your bill, usually near your mailing address.
You won't find the MPRN directly on the bill, but you can obtain it from your supplier.
