Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
Deffo worth a little rinse on one-or-two of the few “working” days over the next few weeks by that logic. On the other hand we’re yet to have a weekend or morning SS so maybe there’ll be a test session during one of those times in the new year?

Makes total sense having spent a year on the forumnowty wrote: ↑Fri Dec 22, 2023 6:15 pmHad a look at the rules and there are 3 types of day,
Working, Non Working and Saving session days.
So bank holidays are "non working days" and so are weekend days.
There are less "non working days" and those days have lower demand so probably not worth boosting your baseline on non working days.
EDIT - If that makes any sense. , joe public will be thinking WTF.
I wasn’t going to make an effort on non working days as they are pretty unlikely to ever have a savings session, so just switching charging EVs and batteries, DHW etc should probably start doing washing, tumble dryer etc as well to boost that number
Thank for the excellent info

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
I can only dream of your "only £60" savings, lol - I saved £1.52 in total. Not going to complain though.

Only made £60 so far but every little helps. Gonna receive my bill for the late November/early December cold snap any day now. That’ll make interesting reading. Hoping to the the gargantuan amount of energy consumed offset by low prices from the additional IOG cheapslots.

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
Could be some colder weather coming in the new year, so maybe a return of saving sessions with live sessions.
Might be prudent to start bumping up those peak rate baselines after Xmas.

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
The Octopus is helping me build my baseline during todays peak period, one of the advantages to come home with an empty EV. Those with no exporting ability can play this game with the IOG tariff.
SWMBO is helping boost it with a white washing load and ironing session, plus the chicken dinner is going on at 5pm.
With the bank holidays it should count towards my baseline on a working day until 15th Jan.
