    I've nothing running so nothing to switch off. Very difficult to save in the summer. I expect another 2p out of pity.

    I opted in then forgot about it so only exported for about 40 minutes. There will be nothing used for the previous two weeks as we've been on holiday and the solar will have been exporting.

    I opted in, might get a dozen Octopoints out of it.
    Looking at the Agile prices, tomorrow evening has another big spike (over 50p) so maybe there will be another session then?

    The likely tuppence worth wasn't enough to remember to opt in, despite Lorian's helpful heads up. Got distracted and went completely out of mind.

    The rest of the evening looks a bit rough too. I've been sleeping soundly through the heatwave thanks to a newly purchased portable air con unit. Here's hoping the forecast showers and lower temperatures materialise tomorrow.

    Opted in this time. My baseline is already very low, so might not even get tuppence.
