    I banked the free hour today as we've had in excess of 30kWh of solar today so more than enough to fully recharge the battery from empty and cover our usage. Waiting for a wet and windy Sunday to double down with two free hours, or when we need the heating on in October.

    A far cry from the 415pts (51.9p) they paid back on 24th June.

    I just view it that I'm going to fully export my battery anyway in the 4-7pm window as I'm on Flux, so getting an extra 8p per kWh for doing so in the 6-7pm period is a bonus, as is the free hour on a Sunday. Not a game changer, but every little helps!

  • Anyone else receiving the emails far too late?

    Last two sessions I haven't been able to opt into because of this.

    Mine just came in at 7.25 .. Lot of use that is. There's others on Facebook complaining too.

    They are variable, but as @debitcardmayhem said you can opt in through your online Octopus account. I subscribe to this thread for an early heads up, as I know someone normally posts as soon as a session is announced.
