There's a bit of discussion of this on the other thread. Has anyone *not* been told they're in the top 20%?

I suspect they have made a mistake with their email. 

One other benefit of Octoplus is supposed to be free electricity when there is a surplus. It looks like there will be a significant surplus on Sunday morning; is there any information on how this will work as there doesn't appear to be much information about it.

Are you thinking of the Power Up scheme? That only applies to certain areas with a lot of renewables locally.

I don't believe so. On the Octoplus FAQ it states the following:

"How will I know about when a Free Electricity Session is happening?

Free Electricity Sessions could happen any time there’s a surplus of green electrons flowing through the grid. This could be the middle of the day when solar is high, or anytime the wind is extra blowy - which could be the middle of the night!

We’ll do our best to give you as much notice as possible, but the best way to stay looped is to look out for emails from us and follow us on Twitter or Instagram."

I'll probably get paid to use it, on Agile, so it doesn't really matter to me.

I have saved about £2.40 per session so far (both times I’ve take. Part!) and I have just avoided charging my car.
