Yuff, you need to remove that image, it has you're API key in it!

Stinsy, Intelligent Octopus Go, request a charge slot during the most likely time for a saving session.

My tariff today is 38p/kWh. Agile is hitting the £1 price cap during peak hours. Both of these suggest to me it's rather tight on the ol Grid again today - do we think another Saving Session might come along?
