TheBanker said:I welcome another 5pm session. I had high usage on two days last week as I charged my electric car. Not gaming the system, I'm on Intellegent Octopus so they decide when to charge it. Last week, they decided twice to start charging when I plugged in on my return from work, which was about 16:30.
Even then so far over 4 sessions I have saved a massive 0.33kWh.
Just noticed another session today (14-12) 17:00 to 18:00Life in the slow lane1 -
I got the alert on Octo-aid when in Tesco. I have the Octopus whatsapp thing enabled, but nothing as yet on that. I've opted in will see if I can persuade our neighbours to get their !!!!!! into gear this time!I find that Octo-aid is faster to update with usage stats than the Octopus app!Make £2025 in 2025

I wish my electric area had these power ups!PPI success. Banding success. Double Dip PCN cancelled! South facing solar (Midlands) and battery. Savings Session supporter (is it worth it now!?)1

Is the power up thing on the Agile tariff, or is it something else you need to sign up for?
