Octopus Energy’s plug-in solar kits have sold out again — energy giant says it’s ‘blown away’ by demand, but more are ‘on the way’ for £150 annual savings (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The threat of a worsening energy crisis is pushing many of us towards tech that could help cut our growing bills — and Octopus Energy says it's now sold out of its plug-in solar kits for a second time in less than four weeks, after being "blown away" by the demand. Plug-in solar kits, which can be installed without professional help, were legalised in the UK just over a month ago. Octopus Energy has been offering two DIY kits to customers, with a choice or one 460W panel (£450) or two panels (£6

Spotify is down for thousands of users today, with the music streaming app given many log-in issues on both iOS and Android. The problems started at around 10.32am ET / 2.32pm GMT, when a large spike on Downdetector showed a high number of users were experiencing issues — mostly with the mobile app. At the time of writing, reports on Downdetector have hit over 17,000 in the US and over 3,000 in the UK.

Read excerpt
Plug-in solar kits become legal in the UK from August 27, which makes that date a pretty significant one in the UK's energy history. That's because these kits are, in theory, a much more affordable and user-friendly way to bring the bill-cutting benefits of solar power to your home. The UK government estimates that plug-in panels could save households up to £70-£110 a year on their energy bills.
