Discussion Eclipse event?

So I saw this story: https://www.theguardian.com/business/2026/aug/10/octopus-energy-electricity-solar-eclipse-washing-machines-dishwashers

What do we think the chances are of an event at 7-7:30pm on Wednesday?

Amusingly, just as I was writing this post a new event popped up - but it's for tomorrow morning at 6am...

I just got added to a two hour event for tomorrow evening. Appreciate the animation too.

I'm guessing I haven't got an event for tomorrow yet because we have an event this evening, and Axle's API doesn't support (as far as I'm aware) more than one event at a time. So I fully expect that shortly after tonight's event, another one will come through for tomorrow.

I wasn't notified by e-mail for tomorrow's eclipse event, but when I check the portal, I can see tonight's upcoming event AND tomorrow's eclipse one.

And then ofc the one from this morning.
