Hi,
We just deployed an addition to Dynamic ESS for UK Octopus users: you now have the option to indicate if your Octopus price (from your API key) includes or excludes VAT.
As this differs per user, please check your Octopus contract details to see if VAT is included in your Octopus energy tariffs.
Let us know if you have any feedback on this feature.
Was the price rounding also changed? My daytime import price is 23.71p and previsously showed as 24p in DESS. Now it shows as 23p.
No, that wasn’t touched on.
Could it be that your price includes the VAT, but the default we put that field to is ‘off’? If you could try it for a bit with / without VAT to see if that resolves it, that’d be great.
And on the rounding: we store and calculate with the price Octopus gives us, which is 4 decimals. We just round it for clarity sakes in the graphs.
