    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.
    Ooooh the excitement 😁
    It's not quite the National Lottary draw, is it :D
    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.
    I think that's close enough for my purposes.
    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.

    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 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)

    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.
    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).

    Just so long as Octopus don't try and charge me, hopefully it's an obvious glitch to them

    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!

    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 :D
    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.)
