Octopus Energy integration
Connect Octopus tariffs to turn raw device telemetry into cost-aware actions, daily savings reporting and smarter battery decisions.
Private beta rollout
This integration is part of the current private beta foundation.
The product foundation is built, but public onboarding is still being paced around vendor-safe rollout and support readiness. Tell us your exact setup so we can review fit carefully.
Best-fit homes invited first
Access is selective and reviewed carefully to ensure every onboarded home is fully supported from day one.
Vendor approvals in progress
Selected vendor approvals are still finalising for parts of the rollout, pacing how quickly we can onboard.
Your device mix matters
Your exact device and tariff combination determines whether the current foundation can fully support your home.
Why this page exists
Without tariff context, households can see energy data but still miss the main question: whether they used electricity at the right time and in the right direction.
Smart tariff
Mapped to the current private beta foundation.
What 1app.energy does here
- Bring live import and export prices into the dashboard and optimiser in near real time.
- Explain current rate, cheap windows, next change and tariff mode directly inside the app.
- Power battery strategies such as cheap-window charging, reserve protection and export checks using actual tariff data.
- Turn whole-home flows into import cost, export value and net cost reporting so users can see the financial result of each setup.
Why this is a strong fit
- Tariff intelligence is the control layer that unlocks the rest of the hardware stack.
- 1app.energy already has product-specific logic for Agile, Go, Intelligent Go, Flux and Tracker rather than a generic import-price field.
- This is the most natural acquisition surface because tariff intent maps directly to homeowner pain and buying urgency.
Where this integration fits best
Related tariff pages
These tariff pages are the most relevant places to explain why this integration matters commercially, not just technically.
Octopus Agile automation
Octopus Agile changes import price every half hour. The real question for battery, EV and heat-pump homes is whether the house can respond to those price signals without creating new conflicts.
Octopus Go battery and EV optimisation
Octopus Go is simpler than Agile on paper, but homes still need to know whether the fixed off-peak window is serving the car, the battery and the house in the right order.
Octopus Intelligent Go coordination
Octopus Intelligent Go creates EV-led charging windows, but battery logic, charger behaviour and whole-home demand still need to be interpreted together.
Octopus Flux battery strategy
Octopus Flux only works well when battery charging, reserve and export behaviour are coordinated properly, because export value is only part of the economics.
Octopus Tracker visibility
Octopus Tracker is simpler than Agile, but homes still need to relate daily rate changes to heating, charging and battery behaviour.
Related whole-home use cases
These pages connect this integration to the broader home-level problems users are trying to solve.
Stop Octopus daytime EV charging from draining your home battery
This is the flagship 1app.energy wedge: stop the daytime EV-battery conflict first, then layer in cheaper-period battery charging and broader whole-home coordination.
Solar and battery optimisation for smart tariffs
This is the core 1app.energy use case: understanding whether solar, battery reserve and tariff timing are working together or fighting each other.
Smart tariff EV charging without home energy conflicts
When EV charging is cheap, it can still be operationally expensive if it competes with battery reserve, heating demand or export value elsewhere in the property.
Whole-home conflict detection for modern energy homes
The more flexible devices a home has, the more valuable it becomes to detect conflicts between them before they show up as cost, lost solar or poor comfort.
Relevant smart controls
These mode pages explain which battery strategy usually fits this integration once tariff and whole-home behaviour are included.
Autopilot
The best starting mode for most homes. Autopilot decides when to charge, hold, or export by balancing tariff value, home coverage, refill confidence, and your protected minimum battery SoC. Choose Balanced for a calmer default or Aggressive for stronger value seeking.
Home First
A simpler home-first mode. It prioritises running the home from your own solar and battery first, minimises grid dependence, and avoids optimiser-led battery export.
