About the Programme

Can I participate in this and other flexibility programmes?

By participating in this programme, you’ll need to agree not to participate in other flexibility programmes offered by different providers.

This ensures there’s no overlap or conflicting control signals between systems.

How long will this run for?

It’s a permanent scheme; you’re welcome to join at any time once you meet the eligibility requirements.


Why do I need to grant remote control access to my inverter?

To deliver energy to the grid automatically, your system must be able to respond to dispatch signals in real time.

This requires remote control of your inverter, allowing us to export power during scheduled grid events without any manual input from you.

All access is secure, limited, and only used during authorised grid service events.


Is this compatible with Octopus or other intelligent tariffs?

Octopus runs its own Grid Services scheme; see their website for more details.

However, in future releases, Octopus customers will be able to sign up for carbon-credit rewards, so check back soon!
