Wooh.
Prices rises from 140€/L to 180€/L for red diesel within 3 days. (We need roughly 3500-4500L/year)
Fortunately we use these only as an backup if our wood chip stove fails.
Fingers crossed that the prices for local wood stays stable.

Just been told Boilerjuice are quoting £1.37 liter for heating oil !!!!

It'd be cheaper using food veg oil £1.09 a litre from tesco

That's one hell of a hike from fizzy's 50p per litre mentioned above.

Just checked to see if that was correct but apparently there are no suppliers in my area able to deliver at the moment ....

The people I got my last lot from are now at 1.20 give or take .5p and that price is only valid for 1hr.
Ever wish you'd topped up when it was ridiculously expensive at 78p

I shall be calling Flogas on Monday to tell them to top up my bulk propane tank. I'm down to 40%, from the max 85% that will go in. It's taken 10 months to use that much, but I'd rather fill it now than wait until they whack up the prices, like the electric rip off merchants are doing.

I'd not be surprised if they make a whole wealth of excuses to delay it until April....

After 50 minutes in a queue I finally got through to Flogas this morning. Coming in 3 weeks time, to fill the tank to the brim, but there's been no communication about Flogas increasing prices yet.

I'm on 37% after 11 months, so doing quite well.

What energy do you get out of a litre of that compared to diesel ?

We paid 68p 2 weeks ago!

 

[addjunkie]

We paid 68p 2 weeks ago!

Yes I regret not topping both our tanks up.

 

[MattF]

We paid 68p 2 weeks ago!

Is this an increase due to supply issues, or due to people stocking up/hoarding unnecessarily, as they do with petrol/diesel etc.?

I had the same message , I think it’s because the prices are so high there is no “cream” for them to add on / skim ..

A step back in "tech" - energy prices are only gonna rise (fact).

I have ordered this: https://www.stovesupermarket.co.uk/...DEjPaZNiO2bk4ElEHjHfK0ZOoxbq9bvEaAnzDEALw_wcB

5000kg of bagged coal - to store in domestic garage at home.

I can teach my grandchildren how to light fires with newspapers and kindling (like my grandparents taught me).

Coal is millions of years old and will not degrade in storage.

Plus UPS only want £60 to deliver this to the Kremlin (I kid you not).




I see this as the "ultimate political protest" - get UPS to deliver Mr Putin all your old gas fires.

I am not joking....

How much per tonne?
Im paying £385 for 1 tonne of smokeless fuel, don’t live in a smoke free zone though so coal will likely be cheaper

Out of interest how long does a tonne last roughly?

£288 per tonne for Class 1 house coal - bagged (payed in cash).

Depends on how mean you are with it?

Not burnt any for years - but 1250kg of coal plus scrounged wood used to last me a year in a well insulated two bedroom house without "central heating" in the early 1980's.

Obviously your not living with my good lady

 

[Barking Mat]

Filled up the car with diesel Friday, as wife was picking me up from the airport Sunday.
Friday 1.86 / litre in euros.
Sunday topped up as news says up to ten centimes a litre price hike this week coming.
Sunday 1.96 / litre.
Today 2.06 / litre.

20 centimes in 4 days.
5 centimes a day.

This can't continue.
