I don’t know what deals are available from energy providers at the moment, but my experience of ‘economy 7’ type deals is that you get a reduced rate overnight, but pay a higher than normal price for the other seventeen hours of the day.
People saying that they only pay x-pence per KWh to charge their EVs could be misleading if you factor in any additional costs for their electricity.
