74p on the 2 sessions, i dont know if i should laugh or what

Think of it as 20kwh of free tracker gas?

Just over £9 for us with the batteries exporting on the first session in Feb and over £10 on the second and it I remember correctly that was mainly free sun energy exported as well so we made the planet greener?

£9.26 for the 2 sessions. Happy with that.

My wife decided to have the oven and induction hob on last night, just after 6pm. She just looked at me when I suggested delaying for an hour, so I left it. I know when to pick my battles, and its not over £1.

Octo-Aid is predicting a 27Wh saving, 5p worth of Octopoints

I know Octopus like to portray themselves as light-hearted, but is there really the need for this level of sarcasm?

"Amazing effort, well done!"

Just shy of 1kWh saved over the two sessions. An extra 1400 points, plus another 32 for 4 wheel of fortune spins.

About £2 for each of the last two sessions here. Bit of a lacklustre attempt on my part as I missed half of the first one and bother going for 100% reduction on the second, but the reward was also a bit lacklustre so I didn’t feel quite the same inclination to make the effort as in the other events.

Still worthwhile in my mind though, it’s not a too terrible saving for what is very minimal actual impact on myself other than having to remember to switch things off/on.

My first two sessions made £2 from my 2 sessinons . Switched everything off at consumer unit  and went out for a bit of exercise and got paid £1 for a one hour speed walk .
no idea how people can make so much compared to me , must be some  sort of gaining the system thing going off which I d like to get onto if I buy a battery solar set up.  . I m a low user at 6 kwh a day in winter and in that hour I cut down 100%

The national grid ESO want people with batteries to send their power to the grid during these events. It's not gaining the system it's propping it up so they don't have to burn more gas or fire up the coal powered generators another level.

That's where the big money is being sent this time round exporting from batteries. Which is a good thing especially this month where there is a little more sunshine so that battery power is clean.
