This has to be the best car @Tesla has EVER produced 🔥

@g__j @OctopusEnergy I will have had mine for 12 months in April and I cannot fault a thing. As well as being cheaper to run, the house is much more comfortable and quieter👌🏼

Not a study, not a survey - but the actual live data from every @OctopusEnergy Cosy heat pump installed in real homes is now online. And it shows that over 80% of Cosy heat pumps were cheaper to run than a gas boiler over the last year and delivered a COP of 3.7 over the whole year (about 4.3x more efficient than a gas boiler) There’s so much disinformation from fossil fuel lobbyists on heat pumps - and anecdote based on bad installs or out of date tech - but we hear time and time again how much Octopus customer la love their heat pumps. Cosy heat pumps can run as hot as a boiler (70C+), can often be installed with no radiator changes and no new insulation, work with microbore piping, can often retain your old hot water tank if you have one. But so much more - comfort sensors in up to ten rooms, optional remote support and servicing, software updates to literally make your heating better without a visit. Effortlessly working with smart tariffs to save money. British designed, British manufactured and thousands of great British jobs. Helping insulate Brits from the last gas crisis, this gas crisis and more to come. See the data for yourself: octopus.energy/cosy-heat-pump…

@neso_energy A great step forward 👏🏼

🏡 💼 Millions of households & businesses can now benefit from flexing how and when they use electricity thanks to new reforms. ⚡ If you’ve got an EV charger, heat pump or battery, you could be able to benefit from rewards. Read more 👉 bit.ly/4bAgf0H

@armintalic I’m on the variable too and can’t decide when or if to fix. Just bear in mind that the variable rate is likely to rise on 1st July.

It feels like I’m better off staying on the variable IOG and seeing what the drop light look like. This fixed deal is a small drop in overnight but also a small increase in daytime, so with a 75/25 split in my average usage, I’d probably end up paying more. All good, thanks for the help.

Hey @OctopusEnergy. I wasn’t aware that there was a ‘fixed’ option for IOG? When I look at available tariffs to switch to, they’re regular fixed electricity options, not IOG? This is in relation to the tariff changes I’ve seen a load of fixed customer share. Thanks in advance.

🚨NEW: Rolls-Royce has scrapped plans to go all-electric by 2030 as ‘drivers prefer V12 engines’

@Roberts71B @OctopusEnergy I think I’m leaning towards that. I imagine it’s a lot easier to manage too, than Agile.

@Earth2075 @OctopusEnergy I am on flat rate as I prefer to know price per kw for export. Plus batteries do not always export early mornings for max sale price

For those with an export tariff from @OctopusEnergy, which one are you on?

@graeme_cobb That’s an incredible deal! I loved my 1st edition ID.3 and things have only improved since then 😎

@jonburkeUK @KathrynPorter26 “I mean the day before that” 🙄🥱

@KathrynPorter26 Sorry Kathryn, on Sunday renewables generated over 60% of the U.K’s electricity. Gas produced just 12.3%. If I may say so, this is going horribly for you.

Sorry Kathryn, yesterday wind provided 54.9% of U.K electricity; renewables 58.5%; and gas a paltry 17.8%. Last year, domestic renewables provided 44% of U.K electricity. You realise I can use the internet, right?

@inandaway @aaronsmith EVs are increasingly being used by all emergency services in the UK 🇬🇧

@aaronsmith If EV's are so reliable, why aren't they used by emergency services?

Out of 473,000 EVs in Australia, 13 have caught fire. Of those 13, 3 were caused by separate house fires, 2 because someone set them on fire, and 5 from high-speed collisions. That leaves just 3 out of 473,000 EVs for which no cause has been identified. 3.

This is your last chance to get £200 in vouchers or on a Visa card, when you get a heat pump installed through @OctopusEnergy ♨️ 🔗 tech.referrals.octopus.energy/u1MPInbX 📺 youtube.com/shorts/NosVpFb…

@StansburyDarren @Tesla For the same capacity, I found them all to be similarly priced, to be honest. Mine’s £6,374 installed. Plenty of smaller-capacity ones are available for less. Lead time, Tesla ecosystem, familiarity, reviews, and brand name were all factors.

@Earth2075 @Tesla I really cannot fathom why people opt for these batteries. So much more bang for your buck available out there.

Today I ordered a @Tesla Powerwall 3🔋 Install within 6 weeks 🛠️ Plus £375 to spend on a Visa card 💳

Well, my thinking was that I’ll definitely drain the whole battery each day. There may be the odd occasion in summer when I don’t, so I was wondering if it might be worth getting a higher price on those occasions or just putting it into the car 🤔 Then again, I imagine Agile might become a full-time job – checking the best times and adjusting the Powerwall each day to match 😩

@Earth2075 @OctopusEnergy Unless you're dumping it during peak? Just stick to the Outgoing at 12p for me, too lazy till I get the powewalls and on VPP. x.com/i/status/20339…

@eV_Newt Just took a pic then packed it all away? 🤣 Management’s not home from work yet, so I’ll have to tackle something else on my list of jobs, first 📋

@Earth2075 Btw, I didn’t actually cut the grass myself. I just plugged the mower in. 👀

V2L (Vehicle to Lawn) complete ✅

@eV_Newt Good old Daryl 💪🏼

@Earth2075 But not with your Tesla eh 😜 #DaciaToTheRescue!

@CARN0N He’ll forgive you, just this once 🧼

Sorry to have neglected you Little T 😅 You are in desperate need of a wash!

@dsdavies1 @DominicBRNKMN 🥵🤤

@DominicBRNKMN Both 🤷🏻‍♂️🫣

Which one would you pick and why?

@psbroke @Tesla Yeah it’s through Octopus. I’ll speak with the coordinator then 👍🏼 I’m hoping the DNO won’t require a fuse upgrade like they did when the heat pump was installed.

@Earth2075 @Tesla I suspect you can apply to Octopus if you are with them?? The Tesla agreement is only accepted after you get your DNO certificate, as adding battery to an existing solar installation will require you notifying them 👍

@psbroke @Tesla That’s good. Can you set your export up before install do you know? I’m hoping to learn from any mistakes or issues they might have had 😊

@Earth2075 @Tesla I was fortunate as had export agreed but Tesla already on my PW2, so an email from the installer sorted that out. And we already had the octopus export tariff set up too, so was pretty painless.
