Has Octopus had anymore free sessions this year yet and do you have to re- register for them?

As far as I know they haven't yet, they had 2 by this time last year , and 14 in total. I am surprised they haven't had one yet or I'm not surprised. AFAIK you don't have to re-register but that's a guess.
They sent this on 1/5/26

All depends on where in the country you are. We have had about 15 power up sessions over the last few months (2 hours free at a at time) in the East of england. You only have to register once and you are then sent emails to opt in.

That's been available for a few years, but only parts of Eastern , I think @2010 was asking about the one in my post above , like we had last year. The east one stops 0.8 miles away from me but in a similar post code eg COx yyy where as im COx yzz. It's based on the sub station.

There's a special one coming up.
If you can power down (aka saving session) for two hours during the eclipse, you might (if you use less than normal) get a free hour of electricity on Sunday.
16kWh fair usage limit on that free electric. Timing of free electric tbc.
PPI success. Banding success. Double Dip PCN cancelled! South facing solar (Midlands) and battery. Savings Session supporter (is it worth it now!?)3
