EV Tariff

[Geh2021]

Saw this today posted by Octopus on Facebook, and now most EV tariffs have been removed, this is definitely worth considering.

Hi all, if you have an EV (or an order for one), a SMETS2 meter and are on standard variable then you can get onto Octopus Go or Go Faster now. Go Faster 4H is the same price as Go but allows you to shift your cheap period from 2130 onwards to get more use into the cheap rate.

You need to either call or tweet Octopus to move across and once you are moved and can see 30 mins readings on either the Loop or Bright apps you either select this link https://octopus.typeform.com/to/uH0Gnf for Go Faster or this link for Go https://octopus.energy/go/.

The reason why I say this is that the current rates are circa 40p kWh peak and 7.5p off peak with no lock-in. These rates will very likely change soon.

If you move (or have already moved) then please make sure you use a referral code - this post isn’t about everyone asking me for a code, but is to make sure we share the love and save some money.

I’m on Go and tried to switch to Faster but the Q4 isn’t yet compatible - so I’m told

Still cant switch to Octopus, I dont think they're taking on any new clients that are on variable rate energy currently.

Same tried earlier this year, but will try again.

Could all be different when we hear the government announcement on Thursday about possible price cap freeze.
