    22p for me, plus the usual export payments at 15p/kWh.

    1.83kWh, so I guess 27p added.

    PPI success. Banding success. Double Dip PCN cancelled! South facing solar (Midlands) and battery. Savings Session supporter (is it worth it now!?)

    46p for exporting. Plus about 28p for exporting at 15p/kWh and importing at 7p/kWh. Seems such a long time ago that we would get paid £'s for doing this.

    6.4kWp (16 * 400Wp REC Alpha) facing ESE + 5kW Huawei inverter + 10kWh Huawei battery. Buckinghamshire.

    Don't have solar or batteries. Switched to BG fix through MSE some time back. Now get their half price electricity from 11am to 4pm every Sunday. We just run our washing machine during that period and maybe the dishwasher if it's full. So easy to adjust our schedule to fall within the 5 hour window.

    Instead of the 2p I was getting from 30 minutes misery with Octopus (according to the OH!), now save around 50p every Sunday, and the OH is fully on board - even plans a bit of baking at the appropriate time!

    Savings session tonight 1730-1830

    NOT available in Eastern, don't know about elsewhere.

    Fun fact they bid 10000/MWh for some slots 🤣, but the 2 they got they bid 139/MWh. No point if you are on IOF either since the peak hours are when you are maxing export.
