Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
Its on but ouch, its a late one,
Tomorrow Wed 15th March
18:30 to 19:30
250MW requirement which means Octopus will almost certainly be in it, but at the standard £3000 / MWh. Although I am sure they will put some higher bids in, they always do.
In day adjustment will therefore be 14:30 to 17:30.

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
Enail just received..
Heads up: there may be a Saving Session tomorrow evening.
If the Session goes ahead, you'll be able to opt in as normal during the day tomorrow, and we'll send you a proper invite email with all the normal details then too.
Why are we sending you this email now? Saving Sessions is part of a wider project run by the National Grid. It's the biggest project of its kind in the UK to test how people can come together to balance the grid and avoid fossil fuels. We don't always know with loads of notice when the grid needs help.
As part of our testing in this project, we'd like to find out how readily people can get involved in a Saving Session with different amounts of notice. We suspect there might be a Session tomorrow. If there is, we'll only open opt-in's on the day. But we thought we'd give you a little pre-warning that there might be one coming up!
Keep your eyes peeled tomorrow, and get ready for a possible Session...

Sneaky.
I wonder if they will announce it as late as inside the in day adjustment window.

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
Could they start only opening it up to selected customers?
Makes it awkward to know whether to charge the batteries overnight.
