I don’t have smart meter for gas but I do for electricity and am on Go Faster 5hours from 20:30hrs. (No longer available to new customers)SJMALBA said:tlcgrantham said:
For me too. Well done. I’ve just completed 2 months on Gas Tracker and have averaged under 5pkw/h saving over 35% or £20 compared to the SVT though £8.60 of that was the lower standing charge.QrizB said:k_man said:
Ooooh the excitement 😁QrizB said:OK, let's try this again.- Electricity: Nordpool average £158.49p/MWh (15.849p/kWh) so Tracker rates similar to 7th June - around 27p/kWh.
- Gas: Marex NPP all-day DA average 147p/therm (5.02p/kWh) so Tracker rates similar to 1st June - around 7p/kWh.
It's not quite the National Lottary draw, is it
So what do we have?- Electricity: 15.875p/kWh wholesale, Tracker 27.2xx-28.3xxp.
- Gas: 4.934p/kWh wholesale, Tracker 6.6xx-6.8xx p.
Nice! BTW, do you have a smart meter?
Over a month and a half, to the end of May, Tracker v2 for gas and electricity saved me 23%, so not in the same league as your saving, but I'm still quite pleased with it.

I was told that it is a hexadecimal error which equates to zero consumption. I have had it from time-to-time on two sets of smart meters (different manufacturers and models).MWT said:Alnat1 said:Almost a whole years gas recorded as being used between 7.30 and 8am on Saturday!!!
I think the problem was the new gas meter was showing 9999 rather than 0 and took from 8th to the 11th to get to 0. Could take some time to sort out and maybe I won't get switched until it's sorted.Usually the crazy high usage is where an error code from the meter is interpreted as a consumption figure.The Octopus systems filter those out, but Bright and N3rgy report them as data regardless.0 -
Just so long as Octopus don't try and charge me, hopefully it's an obvious glitch to themBarnsley, South Yorkshire

Leccy looks similar to today.I don't know about that.Electricity seems to be up a penny wholesale, so will be more like the 1st of June and 28-29p/kWh.Gas is around 160p/therm, similar to the 20th of April so somewhere around 7.3-7.5p/kWh.People on Tracker V1 will be feeling thankful!N.

SJMALBA said:My energy region guesstimate for tomorrow:Electricity - 31.1p/kWh (hopefully, I'm wrong, and it's lower...)I'll leave gas to @QrizB.Thanks, I think
Marex's average DA price for tomorrow is 161p/therm, 5.495p/kWh, pretty much the same as today.(It's the good weather, there's very little wind around and not enough solar to make up for it.)
