Homes across the country will be paid for reducing their energy use for one hour tonight in a scheme that could cut £100 off your bills. The National Grid will run a live event of its Demand Flexibility Service (DFS), which gives households a chance to save money if they reduce their power usage during certain times
A DFS Service Requirement has been issued for Monday January 23, between 17:00pm and 18:00pm, the Express reports. If your energy supplier participates in the scheme and you have a smart meter then you can register. Those who are signed up will receive notification of 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."
