I received formal notification from eDF last week that the price they will charge me for electricity are increased from 25 July 2008. From the old price (which was similar to my feedin tariff), the price is now increased to 19.86p for the first 225kWh used each quarter, with subsequent units charged at 12.11p (both prices inclusive of VAT).

I therfore asked eDF if they will be increasing their 'Feedin tariff'. Their response received this morning reads:

"Dear Sir,

Unfortunately the price paid for exported electricity will not be rising at present. One of the reasons is that imported electricity prices are linked to gas prices which are linked to oil prices, whereas renewable installations have already been bought and are not affected by the vagaries of the oil industry.

Kind Regards
Green Energy Team
EDF Energy"
