OK, one-and-a-half times energy hour, but it's doubly important, as it's very cold right now but there's no wind. Also at peak energy usage time it will be dark, so no solar.
Octoplus Saving Session alert: use less electricity from 5:00 PM to 6:30 PM on 29th November. You'll earn 3200 Octopoints - that's £4.00 worth – per kilowatt hour for any power you save compared to normal as a reward for avoiding fossil fuels. Don’t miss this one: you’ll get near-double rewards. PLUS, just for opting in, you’ll get a chance to win 888,888 Octopoints (£1,111).
This one really matters. Any power you save will directly reduce the need to fire up extra fossil fuels in this cold snap. Every little bit counts: so this time, every opted in customer will earn 100 Octopoints minimum (meaning if your Session rewards add up to less than that, we'll bump them up to 100).
Going to be tricky for us as that is tea time. We are mostly having curry which can go in the microwave, can leave the oven off and even eat a bit later. Clare likes chicken in the oven though at this time. I will see if she can use the Ninja. I'd rather not have it polluted, but it's for the greater good. That is not no-energy, but it's way lower than having the oven on.

Really really cold this morning, frosty out, sure it is below freezing but the forecast says not.
Sunny intervals and a gentle breeze, 1 - 5℃.
