Octopus Fan Club - Discounted energy from your local wind turbine (when it's spinning!)

https://www.octopusenergygeneration.com/fan-club/

Fascinating concept but sadly incompatible with the smarter Solar tariffs. 
-  10 x 400w LG + 6 x 550W SHARP BiFacial Panels + SE 3680 HD Wave Inverter + SE Optimizers. SE London.
-  Triple aspect. (22% ENE/ 33% SSE/ 45% WSW)
-  Viessmann 200-W on Advanced Weather Comp. (the most efficient gas boiler sold)

Feel free to DM me if I can help with any energy saving!

    A more local version of Ripple? Ripples projects are also linked to your Octopus account (and others) and you get paid direct into your electricity account when the projects are operational.

    I believe this one doesn't require any investment, unlike Ripple?

    Sadly not available in NE Scotland, the region with probably most installed wind power per head of population, and most impact on homes.

    It’s ridiculous how much capacity is sat in the queue to connect, including many of Octopus’ turbines. Bring on the regional pricing revolution too!!

    I had a email about this  23 march 2022, but my nearest turbine is 10 miles away in Rye Sussex so no chance of signing up, but did register my interest,  but I do wonder if this is some of the reason I get so many power up sessions, (about 25 this year so far)
