The calculations are at the end of the Demand Flexibility Service Participation doc:razord said:Was there someone who found the actual proper algorithm somewhere that's being used?
I'll have a go at throwing together a calculator by using the octopus API to load past data and then give you a slider on what usage in the proceeding 3 hours (1 hour before) the start of the session to figure out what the saving would be if there's a proper description of the calculation somewhere.

I’ve gone a bit mental with this session and turned absolutely everything off apart from the mains powered smoke alarms. Sitting in darkness with nothing but my phone 😂
edit: also forgot the Ocotpus Home Mini is on too!

Think we did ok today. Finished cooking before the session started, only took 20 minutes to eat so we left the kitchen with its multiple bright LED's and retired to the bedrooms with their single dimmed LED's for the rest. About 90Wh by my count.Another session tomorrow. Will actually be out for that one.3.6 kW PV in the Midlands - 9x Sharp 400W black panels - 6x facing SE and 3x facing SW, Solaredge Optimisers and Inverter. 400W Derril Water (one day). Octopus Flux0
