Our Head of Marketing got this outage text today. It's a good reminder of why we partnered with @lunarenergyinc to launch Octopus PowerStore. For most homeowners, resilience is still too complicated or too expensive. The goal was to make backup power something customers can actually access and understand, not a major home improvement project. Interesting to see outage notifications becoming a more regular part of daily life in some markets. Learn more about PowerStore here ๐Ÿ‘‰ octo.ps/4edK6NA

Weโ€™re doubling down on a customer-powered grid โšก๏ธ With a majority stake in @Uplight, and working with @SchneiderElec, weโ€™re helping utilities tap into flexible capacity faster, no need to rely solely on expensive infrastructure. The future is flexible ๐Ÿ’ช
Weโ€™ve just acquired a majority stake in @Uplight , partnering with @SchneiderElec to harness people-powered energy flexibility for millions across North America โšก๏ธ Electricity demand in the U.S. is surging, driven by AI data centres and the rapid growth of electrotech like EVs, batteries and solar. Utilities need new ways to keep the grid reliable and affordable. Uplight works with over 85 utilities, including eight of the ten largest in the U.S., helping turn customer participation and distributed energy resources into dependable grid capacity. The deal marks a major step for the teams of both Octopus and Kraken โ€“ opening the door to accelerate our expansion in the U.S. Together with @krakentech_ , weโ€™ll combine world-class customer and flexibility technologies to scale demand-side response for North American utilities, helping lower costs for consumers while strengthening energy security and grid stability.. The future grid will be increasingly customer-powered. Weโ€™re excited to help build it. Read more below๐Ÿ‘‡

While we can't control TDSP rates, we'll always make sure you know what you're paying for and why.โ  โ  Want to know how it affects your bill? Click the link below to learn more. octo.ps/4u4upiX
