You used 2p worth of Free Electricity

I've just been told that I used 2p extra leccy during the period. The website says I used 3.4 kWh during the hour compared to a normal of zero. An email asking for clarification sent.
Just spotted the post above. Octopus may have an issue!!

P.P.S. I've checked the recorded smart readings and the meter recorded correctly and Octopus have got them.

Sorry to hear that dan, share with me.



And for those times when grid power is not free...

I don't know if that's worse than receiving the email saying you hadn't used any extra electricity during the free power hour.

£4.64 for me which means as expected export is not taken into account in calculating the baseline.
My baseline was 0.00 kWh and I used 19.56 kWh.

And my mum got 2p.

Mine was correct as the only electric I used was used in the meter itself and a G99 relay.

You used 734p worth of Free Electricity.
You used 30.85kWh overall during the Free Electricity Session
Based on your meter data from the previous few weeks, you normally use 0.13kWh at this time
That means you used 30.72kWh extra electricity during the session.

The following two will not be as good. Next one was sunny during the hour, the last one was unexpectedly sunny first thing in the morning so the batteries did not have the available charge capacity.
