Must depend on the individual tariff, not all,  surely???

Hes talking about octopus agile Sam, which is currently prohibitively expensive throughout the day.

Don’t panic. The graphs show the Agile tariff which is linked to wholesale prices. If we get some wind as predicted at the weekend then you will see many of the HH prices fall.

That was my presumption. Good that we are not on it!

I see that Go/Go Faster pricing has changed. It's now 23-25p/kWh outside the cheap period.

Have to say that I'm not at all surprised.

Only for new subscribers I hope. The previous deal was too good to be true if carried forward for much longer 🤧

Yes - they're fixed tariffs so your existing pricing will be honoured until the end of your current fix. In my case that's 13.45p/kWh until April 2022.

And it would seem that Octopus is now requiring EV ownership.

Yes, or battery storage.

Interesting. I wonder what approach they will take with those already on a tariff who no longer qualify when the term comes to an end.

At the time I went on Agile (and then Go Faster) I did have an EV but they were also pitching it to developers (both professional and amateur) who wanted to automate load-shifting.
