That's tough. Our heating is via a wood boiler, wood is free but I have to cut and collect it - which I moan about the time it takes. But given we have heating on permanently in winter it's ok, nighttime is generally -5c and daytime 10c, but with sun some days .
We have a heat pump planned, a big vaillant too, it will be interesting to see the electric use on it.

Both me and my wife working from home. Scotland being sub zero for most of this week. Wife feels the cold alot. Kids room is cold (working on that right now!). Just means we have the heating on for easily 8-10 hours of the day plus usual electric usage which isn't loads, but adds up. The crazy thing is the gas only heats half the house as the other half runs of oil!!! So its, more than £20 in reality right now.
I realise its a slightly unique moment due to how cold things are here, but still.
