Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov

[nowty]

My brother saved 77% and was awarded 176 points.
My mum saved 13% and was awarded 24 points.
I saved 100% (of nothing) and was awarded 8 points.

They seem to be gearing up for the next one now the results are all in, which would not surprise me if its on Wednesday evening, going off the wind generation forecast and cold temperatures. But will my export MPAN have been live long enough to make a valid baseline.

Yip, that's what I managed to achieve

All better than my award of 0 as it seems because I don't use power at all during the day it's not counted

Apparently we saved 98%, 0.13kWh's, for a grand 240 points. Can't wait to work out what I might like to spend it all on.

Heads up,

1.5 hrs and a live session, so might be a higher payout.

Cool - thanks for the heads up - it is now on the Octopus App, but I wouldn't have known if you hadn't told us - so I'm opted in
