OVO Energy Tracker is here to help cut carbon

 

Last year we celebrated Earth Day by introducing Energy Tracker: our new carbon-cutting, money-saving product packed with ways to help members on the journey to Plan Zero

 

It’s available now to every OVO member at no extra cost, and can be found in your account menu next time you log in. Please check this out when you can, and come back here to tell the community what you think!

 

 

You can use it to see your home energy carbon usage (and how it compares to similar homes), the carbon forecast (when in the next 48 hours are the best/worst times to use energy in terms of carbon output), and to see a weekly breakdown of your energy use, all backed with tips and advice to help reduce waste, cut carbon and save money.

 

(Note: Some of the features may require an eligible smart meter and/or to ensure that meter is reporting to us half-hourly.)

 

Energy Tracker also exists as a monthly email packed with info and tips, which is sent to all members with smart meters that have opted in to receive emails like this. Go to this section of your online account to change your email opt in settings and start getting these! 

 

I’m looking forward to hearing member feedback on this, leave a comment below to tell us what you think!

Ok thanks, I think it is really my immersion water heater that uses the most, but My consumption shows water heating and heating as separate entities and that heating uses more - so quite confusing !

 


You can try to improve it on your account page (under usage) 

but it’s still a ‘best guess’ by the system


Thanks, I’ll update that info and not take the future details given quite so literally !  


Hey @Julia H,

 

Welcome to the OVO Online Community,

 

BpLightlog has given some really helpful advice here, just wanted to add...

 

If your smart meter sends half hourly meter readings it might make it easier to pin point exactly what it using energy and when. 

 

This similar topic may have some useful hints and tips:
