Octopus Energy Saving Sessions?

[dgs99]

Anyone signed up? I don't think there is anything to lose, and doesn't cost anything to join?

Yes I took part in the trial and have signed up for the new sessions. As you say nothing to loose.?

Not much good for me, I've been abroad for more than 20 days so usage was just the house ticking over, which would be hard to beat!!

I'll sign up anyway though...

I have.
Is it like the trial where its based on previous usage as we have recently had solar panels and a battery installed and haven't worked out how much to charge the battery from solar or off peak!

You must have signed up without reading the info in front of you then! I signed up a short time back and it was all there... anyway, the FAQ says

"If the Session is on a weekday, we’ll look at your half-hourly usage over the last 10 weekdays (excluding saving session days). If the Session is on a weekend, we’ll look at your half hourly usage over the last 4 weekend days. These half hourly averages are then subject to an ‘In Day Adjustment’ which will make adjustments based on how much energy you’ve used on the day of the session."

Saving Sessions FAQs

Saving Sessions is the new era of energy. During Saving Sessions, customers get rewarded for shifting their power: for using less when the grid's busy and the power gets dirty, and filling their boots when there's plenty of green in the wires.Find out more about Saving Sessions and Free...

Signed up but unless they do an off-peak session I'll struggle to beat virtually no day-time usage ?

I thought I'd give it a go. As has been said, nothing to lose!

Same here. The financial savings, for me at least, during the trial sessions were pretty minimal though. I will still give this new version a try though.

Signed up, worth a look, with notice I can adjust mealtime or cook something that uses significantly less electricity.
