Will Intelligent Octopus change how my thermostat works?
Intelligent Octopus makes little adjustments to your temperature settings to help conserve power at times when the grid's under a lot of stress. The changes are small (only a few degrees) and happen for such a short time, you shouldn’t notice any difference. More info here.
