On another forum topic yesterday, a commenter said he was paying his electricity Reseller 8c/Kwh to Plug in his EV overnight midnight to 6am.
In Melbourne, I can't get lower than 20.5C/Kwh at Offpeak/Controlled Load to heat my bloody house.
Has the world gone mad?

Can confirm. I am on 8c/kWh overnight from 12am till 6am every night… AND, just to drive the boot in, I get "free" electricity from 11am until 2pm every day as well.

Nope, It works for me :D

That saves cents. Cheers.
More power to you.
I presume you’re with ovo?
I had a look at them, but they seem to charge demand pricing as well, not single rate, not to mention their control load two prices double what I pay with AGL.
Yes, Ovo.
Demand pricing, you mean like peak, shoulder and off peak, then yes. If you meant where prices change on demand (ie: if no one is using power they pay me to use it, if everyone is using power, it goes up to $14/kWh), then no. I couldn’t find a supplier in my area that would do “flat/single rate” and I like operating on peak and off peak cycles.
As for “controlled load” I don’t have it, so I don’t know.
I pay 0c for the Free Electric BBQ at the park
Great when cooking a risotto.
Another usefull post from clicky?
Full yes?
Of use?
No
Has the world gone mad?
No, it's just waiting for coal lovers and deniers to walk the talk, and heat their caves with coal.There's plenty out there.
Someone could not have responded to my post more accurate than this.
Excellent post.
I heat my house using nuclear fusion. It's free and rather effective, although it can be a little unreliable.
Heat your house? Why not just put a hoodie on?
Yes, it's the go to Melbourne uniform.
Get an electric blanket. Thank me later.
They were probably signed up with the 8c EV Plan with OVO: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/833072
I went for the three hours free electricity from 11AM to 2PM every day plan.
Cheaper daily supplier charge and kwh usage charge than AGL (their parent company) so was win-win all round. Also $120 off with OzB referral.
