The 100% green electricity tariff with Plunge Pricing
We're dedicated to bringing you cutting-edge solutions that not only save you money but also contribute to a sustainable future. That's why we're excited to introduce the integration of Agile Octopus with MasterTherm Heat Pumps – a game-changer in energy efficiency and cost savings for your home.
WHAT IS AGILE OCTOPUS?
Agile Octopus, provided by Octopus Energy, is an innovative energy plan designed to help you save money on your electricity bills. It works by offering variable rates that change based on the fluctuating wholesale prices of electricity. Here's how it can benefit you:
Lower Rates During Off-Peak Hours: Agile Octopus allows you to benefit from reduced electricity rates during off-peak hours, aligning with times when wholesale prices are typically lower.
Access to Wholesale Prices: You'll gain access to real-time half-hourly energy prices directly linked to wholesale rates, updated daily. This means when wholesale electricity prices dip, your bills follow suit.
Opportunity for Extra Savings: By strategically shifting your electricity usage to off-peak periods when rates are lower, you can amplify your savings.
Plunge Pricing: A pioneering feature exclusive to Agile Octopus, Plunge Pricing revolutionises your savings strategy by capitalising on negative price events in the energy market. During these rare occurrences when electricity prices plummet below zero, suppliers pay you for the energy you consume. Receive alerts when prices dip, enabling you to optimise savings. Moreover, utilise our Agile API to automate adjustments in your electricity usage during these periods.
Price Cap Protect: Agile Octopus prioritises your financial security by incorporating Price Cap Protect. This ensures you never pay more than 100p / kWh for electricity, shielding you from sudden spikes in the market. While these spikes are fleeting, lasting typically between 30 minutes to an hour, Price Cap Protect safeguards against unforeseen increases in your electricity bill.
Between July 2020 and July 2021, unit prices dropped below 2p / kWh a remarkable 163 times, underscoring the substantial savings potential with Agile Octopus. This tariff not only facilitates savings during off-peak hours but also offers unique features like Plunge Pricing and Price Cap Protection to maximize savings and mitigate unexpected price fluctuations in the energy market.
In summary, Agile Octopus empowers you to take advantage of fluctuating electricity prices, helping you save significantly on your energy bills by tapping into lower rates during off-peak hours.
