On Friday 26 August, Ofgem's October price cap was announced: with the maximum for an average home rising to £3,549. Here's my thoughts on the crisis as it stands, government support and beyond.

We’re training hundreds of energy experts to travel the country giving specially tailored, genuinely impactful energy-saving advice to 500,000 customers who need it most.  

For the last sixty years, efforts to influence energy demand have been defined by (and limited to) the concept of ‘Demand side response’ (DSR). Now we have the opportunity to move to 'Intelligent Demand' - which could solve a whole host of energy issues.

An Energy Tariff Deficit Fund, implemented prior to October price cap increases, would allow customer bills to be held at or around their current level of £1,971 for the next 3 years and decreased after that down to an estimated £1,100 over ten years.

Every three months, the energy regulator Ofgem publishes a new ‘energy price cap’, which is the maximum suppliers can charge for a variable tariff. This guide helps answer the key questions our team has been answering. We'll keep updating it as more information becomes available.

ONE TRICK to get stronger, more powerful spins: lengthen your turbine blade! We're giving old turbines bigger blades so they can generate 2-3x more power. Our new project with turbine supplier EWT could see 1,000 UK turbines repowered by 2030, and produce enough new green energy for hundreds of thousands of homes.

We speak to around 40,000 customers a day and do our best to provide an amazing service, each and every time. Being there for so many people takes a huge amount of work from across our team: but most of the credit has to go to our incredible energy specialists, who work tirelessly and go above and beyond to support our customers.

Simple, considerate and consistent customer service is the cornerstone of our company. So, I wanted to highlight just a few special stories showcasing some of our wonderful team, and some of our lovely customers to share the stories that truly matter.

With energy costs going up, the energy crisis has brought new attention to all the smaller costs that make up your electricity bill; including green levies. Tin this blog we look at how taking them out of customers’ bills and including them in ‘general taxation’ would help unleash energy flexibility, making the grid greener in the process.

Smart meters not only make it easier to manage your energy – they can also help you cut your bills.

The UK’s energy network is slowly but surely becoming greener, but this transformation isn’t without challenges.

At Octopus, we’re all about less talk and more action. That’s why we trialled the UK’s largest ever dynamic demand shift. Working with over 100,000 homes up and down the country, we’ve collectively demonstrated that even the smallest of actions can lead to the biggest changes.

The current energy crisis is putting huge amounts of pressure on people up and down the country. In this blog, we're looking at what a fairer, greener energy system might look like.
