*On a personal note* I was informed this morning that my duel fuel (gas and electric) monthly payments will be decreasing from £188 per month to £!19 from July.

I say nothing. Anyone can guess what I would want to say.

Ofgem is lowering its energy price cap from the current £3,280 per year to £2,074 for the average household in England, Wales and Scotland, effective from July 1, it has announced.
Ofgem said the £1,206 reduction to the cap reflected recent falls in wholesale energy prices. The lower cap will replace the Government’s Energy Price Guarantee (EPG), which currently limits the typical household energy bill to around £2,500. The cut to the cap marks the first time consumers on default tariffs have seen their prices fall since the global gas crisis took hold more than 18 months ago, Ofgem said. At its peak, the price cap reached £4,279 and, “whilst today’s level is lower than last quarter, it is still above the levels it was before the energy crisis took hold, meaning many households could still struggle to pay bills”, the regulator added. https://www.independent.co.uk/busine...-b2345482.html

I bet those panels don't do too well in tornadoes or hurricanes either. I'm hoping that trying to take NYCs pizza ovens leads to open revolt.

Energy bills are likely to stay high for the foreseeable future, according to the boss of the company that owns British Gas.
Centrica chief executive Chris O'Shea said while he believes the worst of the energy crisis is over, risks remain. A new price cap comes into effect this weekend which will see households with typical energy usage pay £2,074. Mr O'Shea said prices have fallen from the rise caused by the Russian war, but are higher than the long-term average. "I think the first act of the crisis is over," he said. "I think what we've got to remember is the energy prices had more than doubled before Russia invaded Ukraine. "Now, prices are back down to pre-invasion levels but they're still two and a half times the long run average." Gas and electricity bills will fall below the £2,500 level that was subsidised by the government under its Energy Price Guarantee scheme. However, under the new price cap, which is set by the regulator Ofgem, households bills will remain £800 more expensive than two years ago. Meanwhile, Cornwall Insight, a consultancy firm, estimates that changes in the price cap - which limits what companies can charge per unit of gas and electricity - will take energy bills for a typical consumer to £1,871 per year from October. That is then forecast to rise to £1,900 from January.

This June (which is a sunny summer month, just saying) Germany has imported more electrical power than ever before in its whole existence since WW2.
Well.

One small step but nevertheless a step in the right direction.
Putin is hoping for a very cold winter.

...??? You kidding me?
We run a hilariously expensive energy transition that in the end will not work without modernising the laws of physics, we get lied to about how sufficient renewables are and how many ways to store energy we already have, we switch off nuclear energy and have 2.5 higher CO2 emissions per head than the Swedes who like the French increase the number of nuclear powerplants and recently did an almost 180° on the Green Deal doctrine of the EU - so what do you mean that Germany did a step in the right direction? If anythig, the news shows that the German special way is increasingly leading into existentially dangerous troubles, and does not work as proclaimed. Our industry increasingly flees the country. And Scholz does not care and praises his miraculous economic. Nothing to celebrate. Its June, sdolar panels prime month beside July and August. We should not import more power thna ever, but we should have imported less power than ever before if our scheme would be working.

Best hope that the French will export you energy from their nuclear stations then

A couple of hours yesterday I was paid for using electricity.
Denmark produced a lot more energy than we consumed, that's why the prize per kw/h was negative. this was only for about 3-4 hours or so. Secondly The Danish government has increased the VAT tax on electricity so it now cost 87 Danish øre(Similar to cent)per kw/h. Markus

The latter is such that obviously all others around us do not think that we can become self-sufficient with our stupid ideas. They are right.
