Octopus Energy is on a mission to accelerate decarbonisation and demonstrate that action can be taken now to reduce the carbon footprint and cost of electricity consumed.
Their innovative approach uses time-of-use pricing and automated load control to shift consumption away from emission-heavy peak periods, to times when power can also be 25 to 50 per cent cheaper.
Octopus is proud to demonstrate the important role engagement in the market can play to realise a lower carbon energy system.
