Evidence structure
Household savings scenarios (verification-first)
Profile B · typical family home
Baseline reference: ~£1,641.18/year (Ofgem medium-use profile). Expected impact framed conservatively as £50 + tariff-cost difference.
Profile C · higher-use household
Baseline reference: ~£2,302.26/year (Ofgem high-use profile). No universal personal savings claim is made beyond the verified £50 component.
Scenario values use verified MGuru evidence pack inputs (Octopus referral terms + Ofgem usage and cap references). Conservative rule remains: expected impact = £50 + tariff-cost difference.
