Accolades
Since 2011, Octopus has built more than 150 solar plants in the UK, making it one of the country’s largest solar investors. In fact, the solar farms they’ve funded generate enough electricity to power 250,000 homes (assuming the sun’s shining!). About Octopus:
- Their Super Green Octopus Tariff offers 100% renewable electricity, together with full carbon offsets for gas.
- They don’t charge exit fees to customers who want to leave and aim to offer clear, competitive pricing.
- In addition to their investment in solar, they’ve also helped fund wind and anaerobic digestion plants (using the natural breakdown of organic waste to generate power).
- They supply 100% renewable electricity to all of Arsenal Football Club’s facilities.
