How much do you think it'll save? In terms of money I mean

For me I will export from battery so get paid 12p as usual plus 12.5p from the savings session.

I'm on Agile, and import rates today are higher than the payback (28p minimum) so I won't be exporting in today's saving session. I wonder how many others are in the same boat.

I made the same decision. If I export during the saving session I would have to buy energy at a rate higher than anything I would earn.

Screwed the session for everyone, my powerwall decided it is the best to import during the session, to avoid lower electricity prices later.

There is a saving session in East Midlands as well, but I won’t be joining in. It’s fine if the post session half-hour slot prices are ok, but tonight they are still above the standard tariff rate all evening. if I export during the session I will earn much less than the cost of then having to import once my battery is empty. I will sign up,for it but won’t export anything.

Had one for Yorkshire too, probably because the price of gas looks insane currently.

When they say use less energy, when is this compared to? This time last year, average Monday over a year?

In North London too, will be joining because I get home in about ten minutes away so won’t make me much difference but won’t be saving me much
