So long since I’ve done one, I can’t remember ember what to do 😁
Mind you I’m charging batteries normally at 8pm so baseline won’t be completely hopeless

I note Octopus is only getting 9p / kWh for this DFS session but is paying us 11p / kWh.

Must be some sort of experiment.

I suspect I might get nada for it apart from the 15p export as my baseline might be negative. :facepalm:

Thanks for the heads up, I'm usually exporting that time of night, but I can turn the power up for half an hour.

We (as in, us lot) have always tried to ensure a healthy positive baseline between 4pm to 7pm but given this Saving Sessions is 8-8.30pm it's highly likely that our baselines are going to be negative.
