Had my Gas Meter disconnected today by @OctopusEnergy (as requested). Heat Pump gets commissioned Thursday by the team at Falcon Heating. V exciting!

@myenergiuk any update on if/when a v2g or v2h car charger will be available? Got 60kwh battery sitting in my @BYDCompany Dophin I would love to use when the house battery runs out

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

@OctopusEnergy @agile_phil Interested to know your plans on the bidirectional DFS coming in April. They talk about using EV, HeatPump etc to get involved. I guess you can only do so much, the vendor like @myenergiuk or Valiant need to have APIs to support it too :)

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

@tesla_uk Looking to understand how the trade in offer works. Says it’s available on PCP and Tesla Loan? Can’t see any details on Tesla loan

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

The Addicts Curve is basically describing me. Spot on @OctopusEnergy and @agile_phil

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

@ChasNewall @OctopusEnergy Seems it’s having problems with connectivity to my zappi. Reboot has fixed it temporarily

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

Anyone else seeing ‘Preparing your Juice’ but nothing else happening on @OctopusEnergy Intelligent Go tonight?

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

@Earth2075 Seems doable

@sarah_go_green @Earth2075 @OctopusEnergy @g__j You are legend in EV etc world to be fair. I am just a closet energy nerd

@tomwarren I used to love being on Agile ‘pre Ukraine’ but it’s not working for me anymore. Personally I am in IOG with @OctopusEnergy which works a treat!

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

@OctopusEnergy It’s been a while since you guys have bid for DFS events https://t.co/n9bvmWUq2Y? Is there a reason or are you guys not getting involved in these anymore?

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

To be clear. I appreciate ashp prefer constant temps, that’s the plan but I would like to set the temp of the room (and get other Tado stats) rather than setting it to ‘5’ and hoping that’s right :)

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

@_heatgeek can I do a design consultation with you guys (pay for it obviously) and then either (a) proceed because it won’t cost me anything after the grant (b) wait until I need to replace the boiler if I don’t need to replace my boiler now?

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

I would do (b) if I discover it’s actually going to cost me a fair bit to upgrade

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

@_heatgeek What is your view on @tado and Heat Pumps? Currently going through consultation with a HeatGeek installer and wondering if I (a) keep my Tado TRVs to just control radiators (b) get the Tado optimiser (c) remove it all.

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

@thameswater That’s brill. Happy new year Rianna.

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

@thameswater How can I go about requesting a smart meter? I currently have a water meter but it’s a ‘dumb’ one. Would love to integrate it into my home assistant setup

[Mark Deakin @markdeakin]

@ecovacsrobotics could we add a feature to add sub areas to a room? I want to be able to tell the t50 to clean just round the dining table rather than the whole of the kitchen
