It was my 2 year anniversary of my @OctopusEnergy @g__j home mini! (Missed it due to stress,it was this week)! This device has saved around £2400 for my home by allowing smarter use of energy. This is through a load balancing system I’ve developed. Energy never felt so octopus.

Wow - meta’s AI Hyperion data centre will be the size of Manhattan and consume as much power as New Zealand does in a year (This week’s Economist).

I worked at British Gas. I'm now Octopus' CMO (from early days). BG want us banned from taking new customers, yet we meet Ofgem financial rules, saved taxpayers £bns rescuing Bulb & built huge value. Grateful for our customers. BG should look after theirs, not throw rocks at us

I spoke in Parliament today to support the @OctopusEnergy 'Tenant Power' tariff that is installing solar panels and heat pumps in Snodland, Kent Cutting energy bills through installing solar is a pathway to supporting those most exposed to cost-of-living pressures.

Coincidence that three of the top places to work are powered by Kraken @krakentech_ ? No. Most employees want to do outstanding work but most enterprise software gets in the way (computer says no). Kraken fixes that - giving better outcomes to customers, teams and businesses.
