Hmm ... guess it's no surprise that Ecoflow are completely sold out of their "balcony solar" packages and ground mounting solutions ahead of any upcoming legislation changes.

I do hope they've gone to folks that will use them rather than some infuriating scalpers or something.

EV Charging Companies Face Sharp Rise in Fixed Energy Charges, Warn of Higher Costs for Drivers and Risks to UK EV Transition Electric vehicle charger operators in the UK are confronting dramatic increases in their energy bills due to changes implemented by the energy regulator Ofgem in 2023. The regulator altered how standing charges for businesses are calculated, shifting the focus from energy consumption to fixed charges based on grid connection capacity. This has resulted in average network charge hikes of 462% over the past three years for charging firms, with one company, Osprey Charging, reporting an astonishing 38,000% increase in its annual fixed charges since 2021, from £87 to over £33,000. Charging companies invest heavily in large grid connections to prepare for future demand, but with only about 5% of vehicles on UK roads currently fully electric, they cannot yet recover these costs through usage. Industry body ChargeUK warns that these costs will likely be passed on to EV drivers, potentially discouraging purchases and undermining the government's target of 300,000 public chargers by 2030 as well as the planned ban on new petrol and diesel car sales. The situation is compounded by a government review of the Zero Emission Vehicle mandate, which sets EV sales quotas for automakers. Opposition parties, including Conservatives and Liberal Democrats, criticize the Labour government for policies that make electricity more expensive through levies and standing charges, calling for reductions in costs to support the green transition and ease living expenses. The government acknowledges the need for grid upgrades due to historic underinvestment and is pursuing reforms. Experts emphasize that without intervention, higher charging prices could slow EV adoption and infrastructure investment at a critical time.
