693 reasons to think more about electric efficiency

693 reasons to think more about electric efficiency

The news that millions of UK households have been dreading has been announced…The energy price cap has risen as expected and with it will rise heating bills across the country.

Media reports are suggesting an average of a £693 rise per household and even with the chancellor stepping in with a £350 support package this will no doubt worry many.

Here’s what the energy regulator Ofgem had to say, it is pretty grim reading;

“We know this rise will be extremely worrying for many people, especially those who are struggling to make ends meet, and Ofgem will ensure energy companies support their customers in any way they can.

“The energy market has faced a huge challenge due to the unprecedented increase in global gas prices, a once in a 30-year event, and Ofgem’s role as energy regulator is to ensure that, under the price cap, energy companies can only charge a fair price based on the true cost of supplying electricity and gas.”

There is frankly very little consumers can do about the global economics at play here but we can consider good old “home economics” - do you remember those lessons from school?!

So right now is the perfect time to control your heating efficiently where you can.

That “WHERE” is the key factor here because when you go for the electric heating option, you can gain far better control.

This is simply because electric heating offers a much better ability to selectively heat specific areas, whereas with gas, you have to heat your whole house.

You see, traditional radiators work by conducting the heat from hot water running through its internal pipes into the air, an electric radiator conducts the heat through electricity.

All electric heaters operate the same way internally to produce heat and are designed to transfer thermal energy from one place to another for the key purpose of heating a room.

In fact, an electric heater conducts the heat through electricity much like the elements in a hob or a kettle. The elements are warmed up and then the heat is transferred into your room either by radiated heat or convection.

Maybe something to think about over a cuppa as you tackle your own energy challenges.
