We think we have the heating/electric sorted pretty well, we have 16 solar panels on the roof, which give plenty of electric and hot water especialy in the brighter months.
We have a multi fueled stove linked to the oil central heating, so when the fire is on, the oil isnt,... but if we do ever need a boost then it there
Our coal,.. we trickle buy throughout the summer, we find thats a far cheaper way to buy, at the moment its just over £6 a 25k bag, it was cheaper during the summer when we bought ours
Logs are free, we can get more than enough wood without charge
We dont use gas
