That's pretty crazy! Especially considering that we don't have heating. Having said that, heating is not room specific, and generally heats the whole house! The volume of water required by the radiators and the alike, does explain why it's such a huge number!

Got to say, I'm genuinely blown over by that figure!!!

Its the average houshold figure.

Pretty scary.Especially so when you look atthe heating bill that could be reduced by simply living in a cooler house and wearing warmer clothes.

I can only assume that the average house leaves their heating on year round! As a kid, and still as an adult, heating (plug in ones now) only go on if there's snow outside.

Just to expand the thread a bit.
We're what the world calls a low user of electricity.
Our daily average is only 4-5 units a day.
That's not changed for 5 years.
So I'm wondering what everyone else is using in units NOT MONEY.

Can't see it happening Tigs.
The UK government against big business? No contest, big money wins everytime.

Besides they'll have to have a committee to decide on how to form the final committee which will do the investigation who in turn will have to form a quango to oversee the first committee's decision on how the second committee reports back to the . . . . . lost the plot but you'll get the idea.

End result?
The results will be out sometime next year but one and acted on in the NEXT parliament but only if the Tories get back in power (maybe).

Cynical, me? What ever gave you that idea?
