Gas projection

[igenlode]

My projected gas use for the next year has gone down to £164 from last year's estimate of £606 as based on average per-capita usage, which gives an idea of how much energy I'm getting through relative to the average person (although the fact that the plumbing means I can't have late-night baths probably contributes as much as the fact that the background heating is set to about sixty degrees...)

Well done! We've just had our gas meter removed as all our water heating now comes from our heat pump. And we don't use much hot water anyway.

I also cook on gas, although that involves heating smaller quantities of water and is probably not so energy-intensive... I've never been quite certain if it is more efficient to boil water for vegetables in an electric kettle before adding it to the saucepan, but due to the design of the kettle element it's much quicker, so I do.
