Gas price ⬆️ Electric price ⬆️ Fuel cost ⬆️ Food cost ⬆️ Rent costs ⬆️ Now. Bank of England raises base rate. WHY. ??? This WONT help families. 🫣

Borrowing a mates van for the weekend to help move my daughter... thought it needed some signwriting (well, gotta use AI for something fun!) - thinking of other stupid names for his van.

Busted out the camper for a jolly yesterday. Just about fell off my perch when I filled it up with Diesel. Pleased my Daily is an EV 🫣 (Ps. The numbers on the top are the km recorded for mpg purposes)

Fascinated by how low the radiators can run. 29.7°C today with the ASHP on — and the whole house just feels different. Softer heat, quieter, more even. No scorching pipes, no sudden blasts. Just this gentle, constant warmth that somehow makes the place feel lovely. #HeatPumpLove

Torbay Council now requires a permit if you're using a trailer to visit the recycling centre. Whilst aimed at controlling commercial waste, I can't help but wonder if this will simply encourage more fly-tipping instead. Is this really the right solution? 🤔 #Torbay #FlyTipping

Hey @OctopusEnergy & @g__j Your app is still showing the wrong key to the graphs. Might want to chuck an extra donut to your app gurus to tweak 😜

Its our 1st Year aniversary of our house running on full electric - #NoGas - we often get asked how much it cost to run our ASHP (among other Q's which I love to answer) - so I prepared this sheet to give them. #HeatPumpLove - It works for us (very well)

Anyone else’s #ASHP just gently kick in with the temp difference outside without you even knowing it. ♨️

Diesel fuel in Torbay has just broken the £2 a litre today. No doubt the rest will follow. I gave up diesel 6 yrs ago when it was just under £1.30 I do feel sorry for those with no other option. 😔

Thanks #Daikin for updating systems to allow data for Home Assistant. Another tech rabbit hole that I am diving down! 🫣 #ASHP - Ready for Winter.

does anyone have a contact for @HiveHomeUK - I purchased a new hub to work with the system, but it will not connect. (I just get bumped to join the installer club) - Customer Service is becoming non existant

Hi @OctopusEnergy 👋 Loving being with you, but with electricity costs still rising, any chance of a bump on the 12p export rate? Would really help solar households. Thanks! 🐙☀️

It's over 8 years since we launched Agile and Go. Pretty much all customers on our Smart Tariffs (Agile, Go, Cosy, Flux, Prime, Outgoing, etc) have made significant savings. And yet only 10% have made the change so far. New page here octopus.energy/blog/which-sm… to help make the choice.

So - I have worked out some stats for our 1st year with our #ASHP from @OctopusEnergy . For us it’s 100% a win. They wont suit everyone, but if you are contemplating it, with additional tech, it accelerates the benefit. Interesting to see the COP stats #NoGas

Hey. I got my first block today. Accused of lying. But with evidence of the truth it’s ’your blocked’ rather than saying sorry. Apparently all climate people lie according to @kevf3480 🤔

UK grid right now: 73% renewable. Wind 16.9 GW. Solar 6.5 GW. Gas just 9%. Agile rates: • Lowest -1.94p • Average 23.4p (−14.9% vs yesterday) When #renewables dominate, prices collapse. More wind. More solar. Less dependence on gas is needed.

179‑mile round trip today to see a client. 3.5 hours driving, used 43.8 kWh. Home charge cost: ~£3. My old car would’ve been £35. Doesn’t take many trips like this to see how much cheaper an EV really is.
