    Best quote of the day by Greg Jackson regarding off street charging. You can’t fill your car with petrol at home. No one owns their own oil well. Why is EV held to a different standard? He was very fair in saying EV don’t work for everyone, but they will work for many. @OctopusEnergy #OctopusETS26 #OctopusEnergy

    We smashed our August solar record, beating our previous high by 58.4k kWh! ☀️ Even with the heat waves and AC running, production stayed strong (though it did mean less spare energy for export). 🌡️⚡ https://www.bazmac.me/blog/solar-grid-battery-overview-august-2026 #SolarEnergy #SolarPanels #SolarGeneration #OctopusEnergy #OctopusWatch #SolarBattery #OctopusExport #SolarPV #HeatPump #IOG #IntelligentOctopusGo

    We just got our G99 application back. Our 10 kWh inverter is going to be limited to 9.5 kWh. Happy with that. It could have been much worse. Now we can move forward to install. #SolarBattery #G99 #SolarPV
