For some homes, the interesting part of Octopus is not just the energy tariff. It is the combination of supply, export options, solar installation, batteries, and smart usage patterns.

What Octopus offers

  • Solar installation quotes for suitable homes.
  • Battery options as part of wider home-energy setups.
  • Export tariffs and smart tariff options that can change the economics of self-generation.

What to compare

  • Total installation cost rather than headline monthly savings alone.
  • Battery size, warranty, and how the system fits your usage pattern.
  • Whether a smart tariff or export tariff changes the value of the setup.
