Blog2023 ≫ Another free energy today

Free energy from 2pm to 4pm again. I can see from my graph that the washing machine isn't creating anything like the sort of spike the tumble dryer does, so I think I'll put washing in first, before the free period. Then I can make maximum use of the tumble dryer at 2pm.

I got another update on how I'm doing so far

Hi Paul,

During the Power Ups on 12/09/23, 14/09/23, 15/09/23, 20/09/23, 21/09/23 you’ve used 232% more electricity than usual. We’ll credit you a total of £4.88 for all of the electricity you used during this time.

As a collective Power-ups customers have used a total of 174,933 kWh spare green electricity, stopping it going to waste and keeping the grid in balance.

Smashing job, well done everyone!

So nice!
