Saving Sessions / Demand reduction thread

- Start date
I've lost the link can you put the link back up please for the tracking site that someone found, assuming thats where you got this from
Weekend could be interesting, I think most people would be less inclined to sit in the dark to save 50p
Thanks guys. I see todays they are aiming for twice yesterday, 100MWH
I'm still unsure how Octopus managed to do yesterday, unless they had some kind of last minute agreement.

Yeah I guess.
They did make quite a lot from us in the early sessions so I guessed they figured they had plenty spare to keep us in. Last year they gave away bonus points at the end so guess they probably wont this year as they may already have used up most of the "pot"
50p is pretty much my minimum, doesn't seem worth going lower IMO (unless you happened to be full of solar at the session point)
nice, im in
no idea how they are funding this now!...

Oh that would be nice, on a powerup from 11am so will have fully charged batteries later ready for dumping if this happens
Requirement published
Has anyone got the link to the requirements I dont seem to be able to find it now 
I suspect Octopus will opt you in to both via one opt in
I believe the requirements for the NG are that you have to opt in as an individual, but I think they would allow a single signup as being within the rules

you're in the top 1% of Saving Sessions customers!
Here's how you did:
Over 15 Sessions, you saved 67.5kWh of power when fossil fuels were burning hardest.
That put you in the top 1% of all customers.
You and your fellow solar-powered customers made even more of an impact. You personally saved around 39x as much as the average customer without home solar – proving it pays to have rays.
You stopped 12618g of CO2 from entering the atmosphere.
And earned 134080 Octopoints or around £167.60 – the equivalent of 79.1 days' free electricity for an average UK home.
