Electroverse discount today - 19 Dec 2023

[mg4mc]

I just a notification that all charging on IONITY and Osprey chargers through Electroverse is 40% off this evening between 22:00 and 23:59.

Maybe somebody can make use of this.

Yes same here ?, and worth allowing push notifications on your Electroverse app to get future offers 24 hours in advance:-

Quote from email :-

“Plunge Pricing brings public charging a step closer to energy generation in the UK, offering Electroverse drivers discounts on certain charging networks when the amount of energy on the grid is in excess (e.g. due to high solar and wind generation).

Public charging discounts have long been on our minds - namely, how can EV drivers using the public network benefit from discounted prices - and so we’ll working to bring ever more charging networks onto Plunge Pricing.

Through Plunge Pricing, exclusive discounts can be offered on select networks when the amount of energy on the grid is in excess (e.g. due to high solar or wind generation).”

Plunge Pricing Octopus Electroverse: How does it work

Much like Yin and Yang, the UK power grid needs to be balanced at all times - but there are times when there is too much energy on the grid (sometimes caused by excess solar and wind generation from those really sunny and/or windy days). So, when energy is in high supply and demand low - why...

I think a 30 mile round trip to my nearest Osprey charger would be counterproductive , especially at bed time

I agree. It's a bit of a passion killer when you excuse yourself with " I must go and charge the car"

I am married with kids. That won't ever be an issue.

I'm a home charger mainly anyway. However at least Octopus are thinking about us, and for that odd long trip to friends/relatives this could come in handy for a cheap charge. Future offerings in warmer/sunny/windy conditions when spare renewable energy has to be used up (e.g. Summer Sunday afternoons perhaps ?) we might get some great offers. I believe with an Electroverse Card you also don't get any pre-charge holding amounts on your credit card when first charging ?? (I may be wrong here though ?)

On Ionity and Osprey chargers.

Well, I do want to charge at that time, but I don't know of any Ionity or Osprey chargers around. I'm going to Fastned to complete my registration for their excellent plug it in and walk away facility.
