Good! Had a little rinse yesterday so hopefully my baseline has gone up a kWh or two…
Sorry but as a DFS was called, yesterdays rinse won't count. :teapot:
:-(

So no point rinsing today either!

We need to find rare days when there is neither a SS nor a DFS that Octopus aren't in! Or do you thing SS season is over?

Market prices were north of 13p / kWh at peak time today, NESO should have accepted bids a little higher today.

They’ve been consistently too conservative all winter!

I suspect Octopus might achieve 15p or 16p / kWh on Thursday and/or Friday, wind looks a bit low and its colder. :xx:
