Morning all,
I'm wondering about changing Octopus tariffs and hope the wisdom/experience of the forum might help!
We now have two EVs (ID.3 and EX30), a small-ish solar panel setup (max monthly yield in 2023 was 556 kWh) and a 10kWh battery (Huawei - quite inflexible controls, so no good for Flux).
Current costs from Octopus:
A few questions:
Does Intelligent Octopus work with two EVs? (I guess it will but can anyone confirm)
Can the battery still charge during the cheap period?
Is the export rate for Intelligent Octopus really 15p?
Anything else I need to be aware of?
Many thanks!
