#2 – Economy 7 times

Economy 7 tariffs do not communicate through the Octopus Energy API when peak and off-peak prices start. To accomodate for this the app follows the guidelines set out by Octopus Energy on Economy 7 times for smart meters. During BST this means the app will report your off-peak times as 01:30–08:30 instead of the usual 00:30–07:30.

Tariffs marked with Partial Support1 work in the app, yet may not show non-standard off-peak hours. The Octopus Energy API does not adequately share this information. You will not see upcoming off-peak hours that deviate from the normal times. The history will not correctly account for off-peak hours that occurred outside of the normal times.
