Get the inside scoop on energy, technology, and all things Octopus.

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.

Meet Alex Schoch, Head of Flexibility. His team leads the development and implementation of our cutting edge flexibility products - using our Kraken and Kraken Flex platform to develop tariffs like Intelligent Octopus, Go, and Tesla Energy Plan and also creating cutting edge trials like the National Grid partnership Big Dirty Turn Down.

Today ‘net-zero’ can feel more like a futuristic buzzword than a doing word, with many left wondering what this monumental shift could possibly look like to the average person? And most importantly - how do we get there?

Confused about what support is available from the government during the energy and cost of living crisis?

We explain everything here, and cover the unique support Octopus is offering its customers during this time.

Whether you live hours from a town, or in the tallest tower block in the city, if you love nature it’s likely you have your own special way of finding enjoyment outdoors. We decided that we want to find out what nature really means to you: our customers. So we’re opening the doors to our green neighbourhood.
