As I mentioned in my other thread. I'm now up and running with my solar PV set-up.

I'm connected to EDF energy. Most solar forums and YouTube video users say octopus go is the electric tarrif to be on.
Is this still the case?
Are there alternatives?
I will be having batteries so should I take advantage of the cheap overnight tarriff?

Don't think they allow you anymore if you don't have an EV. They used to be ok if you just had batteries. Think they have tightened their belt though. Their other option if agile, but I don't believe this is performing how people would hope. None of the super cheap units seem to be happening.

Would economy 7 be a option? Or is that no longer available?

To be honest, I would call Octupus. They are usually good. They 'may' say Go tariff is ok for your battery. They may say eco7 is better.
