I don't think Bitcoin has anything to do with it.
There are like, what, a few thousand miners in the UK?

It might very well be Bitcoin. Electricity market doesn't usually see high fluctuations, so a systematic change like Bitcoin will push prices up.

Lol there is absolutely 0% chance this is due to bitcoins. Like not even in the ballpark of material energy increase.

In the future when every household is mining it'll be possible...  Grin
