Households could be rewarded for using less power today as the National Grid runs a live event of its Demand Flexibility Service (DFS). The scheme allows people who have signed up the chance to save money during certain times outside of peak hours if they use less electricity.
A DFS Service Requirement has been issued for Monday, January 23, between 5pm and 6pm, the Express reports. If your supplier has signed up to the scheme and you have a smart meter you are eligible to join.
Those already signed up will receive a notification of any live events that could save them money. The National Grid's ESO website states: "If you have signed up to take part in the DFS scheme your electricity provider will contact you before a demonstration test or live event and ask if you want to participate in the following day’s event."
