I attended the Everything Electric Show today.
I spoke to Octopus and Givenergy representatives about the fact that the Givenergy Charger isn't yet integrated with Octopus Intelligent Go.
I was hoping that they would indicate a date in the coming months when it would be sorted.
The bad news for those in my boat is that they both blamed each other for the lack of progress, so that is not promising.
The Octopus guy said that Givenergy had to do something to get it all working.
The Givenergy guy said that Octopus had everything they needed because it is open API, but their Kraken system wasn't set up for it. Possibly because they can't deal with the fact that there is both a battery and EV charger option.
Octopus guy suggested I go for agile, Givenergy guy suggested I go for Tomato energy (though he was sticking with Octopus).
Anyway, thought I would share my depressing intel.!
