Understanding Octopus Agile
The Octopus Agile tariff allows you to buy energy when it’s cheapest, optimising your energy bills. Wondrwall calculates your energy needs and automatically imports energy during low-cost periods. It uses this energy to charge the battery, heat the hot water, and optimise your heating schedule. Wondrwall uses battery storage to ensure you avoid importing energy during peak times when prices are highest. Plus, it maximises your earnings by exporting surplus solar electricity back to the grid.
