At this rate I may never have to actually pay an electricity bill again.
I still have about €300 from the credits.
€12.73 a month isn’t going to do much to a person’s €300-800 bill.
For pre-pay customers their standing charge will be reduced.
The impact for bill paying customers will mean that their electricity supplier is required to credit customers €89.10 for the remaining seven months of the 2022/23 tariff period. This monthly PSO Payment of €12.73 will be clearly reflected as an individual billing line item on every customer’s bill. Customers are not required to take any action and the payment will be reflected on the first bill received based on usage of electricity from the 1st of March.
For prepay meter customers, the PSO Payment will be credited daily to their prepayment meter by deducting the PSO Payment due to customers from the daily electricity standing charge by the customers electricity supplier. No action from the prepay customers is required and the PSO Payment will be reflected through a reduced standing charge on a daily basis from the 1st of March 2023.
What a country we live in lads. Customers get to subsidise big businesses electricity bills while also paying a standing charge for renewable energy suppliers to sell the electricity to the esb so they can then charge us for it again.
