Power Move Flex - Winter Trial Update

Updated on 20/01/26 by Chris_OVO

 

Over the 18 months, Power Move Flex (as part of CrowdFlex) has shifted 864,700 kWh's and paid out over £1.02 million in bill credits.

We've had over 100,000 customers take part over the 3 trials in which Power Move Flex helped match the demand to the power being generated. So homed used cleaner, greener energy.

The trials were aimed at understanding how households can contribute to a greener electricity grid. The learnings we gathered from being part of these trials will be essential for the Electricity System Operator to plan for the future of the electricity grid, and how our customers can play a role in this. Together we've been making energy better for people and the planet. 

 

Our current trials are now closed, and we'd like to thank our users for their participation.

Hi everyone,

 

The first series of Power Move Flex ended in July, and we started inviting eligible customers to Power Move Flex for Charge Anytime in August.

 

Now, we're starting to invite eligible customers to take part in the next phase of Power Move Flex. You’ll be taking part in Power Up events (when there’s low demand on the grid) and Power Down events (when there’s high demand on the grid). 

 

Like last time, you’ll earn credit for every kWh of electricity you shift above or below your normal use.

 

For more information on the next series of Power Move Flex, please visit Power Move Flex or view our updated FAQs.

 

 

Thanks

The OVO team

@Chris_OVO so is it different this time around? I thought that if you had previously taken part in the Power Move/ Power Move Flex events you were automatically  enrolled for the next one.

Hi @Lucky2,

 

I’ve checked this with the team, they’ve responded saying:

 

“There were a few exceptions for Charge Anytime, but all customers who were auto-enrolled should receive an email confirming.”
