If you’re getting into decimal places, there’s been a small drop (0.2p) in average domestic electricity costs during March but overall, the 24p mark looks hard to shift in either direction.

Yet again though, there’s been a further fall at the top end of the energy supply sector, with the highest recorded cost dropping below 50p per kWh for the first time this Winter.

What will happen to costs next depends on gas prices and, therefore the cost of fuelling power stations which rely on gas, and how much renewables such as solar and wind can step into the breach as Spring comes.

Allstar customers enjoy (and probably need) their fast charging so that they can get back on the road quickly and minimise downtime, and that’s why the cost of public charging stays around the 76/77p mark due to the demand.

In our data, the average cost of DC (rapid and ultra-rapid) charging is 78p per kWh, while AC (slow and fast) charging is 57p. That the average overall cost tracks closer to the former figure than the latter suggests drivers need to plug in, get as much power as possible, and then resume their work.
