Saving Sessions in this mild weather?
I’m all in favour of saving sessions offered by OE but, I’m rather suprised that one is being offered today as I am unsure of the rest of the UK but the South East of England is basking in OAT of 15 degrees C and my heat pump is showing a COP of 4.9+! Could it be that there is something else behind the SS’s perhaps? Only too happy to help out between 18:00 - 18:30 on Thursday 14th. March, just a little surprised, that’s all. Rewards, Toodles.

OE don't offer savings sessions its the National Grid, OE just bid to take part, these are test sessions to collect data its not a real demand
@gary Fairy Nuff! The National Grid are behind all the sessions as I understand it and data gathering must be costing a fair amount then. I suppose the alternative would be even more expensive though! I did read somewhere that the previous saving session didn’t appear to be linked to any particular demand spike pricing though. New gas-fired power stations anyone? Regards, Toodles.
