We know energy bills can feel overwhelming this time of year, so we wanted to give you the latest updates from Octopus: tools, news and more to help you keep warm and keep control of your bills.

Energy prices are dropping from April 1st, driven by the government cutting some levies from electricity bills. You don’t need to do anything: we’ll automatically apply the savings to your tariff.

Here’s what you need to know.

Energy prices are very volatile right now due to the war in the Middle East, and dynamic tariffs based on live wholesale prices like Octopus Tracker and Agile Octopus tend to see the impacts first. So, is it time to fix on a standard tariff?

Switching to an electric car can be cheaper and simpler than running a petrol vehicle, but it gets even better if you can charge it cheaply on a smart EV tariff. If you stay on a standard electricity tariff or rely mostly on rapid public charging, the savings are smaller right now and it may not feel worth it.

Global events like this can affect the price that we all pay for our energy. Let’s explore how this impacts your business.

Allan, a homeowner in Ormesby St Margaret near Great Yarmouth, had already embraced green technology—driving an EV, generating his own power with solar panels, and storing it in a home battery. But his ageing oil boiler was the one thing he hadn’t replaced. Living off the gas grid meant relying on costly, unpredictable oil deliveries, so when his tank ran low, Allan turned to Octopus Energy for a better solution. Within days of getting a quote, an Octopus specialist guided him through the process, and a tailored system was designed to suit his home’s underfloor heating.

Just five days after the survey, Octopus’s expert install team had Allan’s home running on a clean, efficient heat pump powered entirely by electricity. The seamless, fast installation—and friendly engineers—left a lasting impression, and now his neighbour is getting an Octopus heat pump installed.

Worried you're making these costly energy mistakes? From leaving heating on constantly to overfilling your kettle, these common errors could be costing you. Here's how to fix them, and save money.

Intelligent Octopus Go has always offered super-cheap power for your whole home every night and smart charging to let you charge cleaner for less.

To keep our off-peak rates as low as possible, in 2026 we will be updating Intelligent Octopus Go to automatically apply the 6 hour limit for super-cheap smart-charging.

Around 80% of Intelligent Octopus Go charging sessions are already using less than the 6 hours mentioned in our terms – which is good, because scheduling more inevitably drives up the cost as we're charging when wholesale costs and grid stress are higher.
