No doubt you are still being charged in pounds, shillings and pence, rather than this newer nasty decimal stuff :-)

All gas suppliers in UK use kWh. Meters show in m3. Conversion if I remember correctly is approx. 10 - 11 kWh to the m3, depends on exact type of gas supplied. So, averaging out at 10.5, 100 m3 = 1050 kWh.

Apparently, British Gas (BG) charges for gas usage by the kilowatt hour, not by any of the strange units common in the US. BG is in the middle of a roll-out for dual fuel homes that will let users switch between the two forms of energy usage somehow. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/money/british-gas-get-a-smart-meter-or-well-charge-you-an-extra-300-93kzplzlj <https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thetimes.co.uk%2Fedition%2Fmoney%2Fbritish-gas-get-a-smart-meter-or-well-charge-you-an-extra-300-93kzplzlj&data=02%7C01%7C%7Cb12d8f16db2a48bb45ab08d6e283bfcb%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C636945452816623206&sdata=TR82HLHNQ58%2Bge3VnQtL7Amv%2BZbt446Hq2eOsqCJG98%3D&reserved=0>

Both gas and electricity consumption is measured in kWh.

So apparently the necessary energy unit conversions are done by BG, not by the consumers.
