Massive energy company British Gas has confirmed that it will be paying customers if they use electricity outside the peak times in the coming months.
People may be paid to use high-energy appliances like washing machines, ovens and tumble dryers at unpopular times of day, like late at night or early morning, reports the Daily Record. However, customers will need to opt-in to the scheme and could be asked to slash electricity use by 30 per cent from 4pm to 7pm.
But, no details have been confirmed by the energy giant yet. British Gas has also not confirmed how much customers can get paid for opting in to the scheme, but Martin Lewis has claimed that a trial will launch "later this year".
