EcoFlow has announced full compatibility between its advanced home energy ecosystem, including the EcoFlow PowerOcean Single-Phase system, and Intelligent Octopus Flux, Octopus Energy’s smart solar-and-battery tariff.
This integration builds on EcoFlow’s existing built-in support for the Octopus Agile and Octopus Flux tariffs in the EcoFlow app.
With the latest upgrade, customers can now connect to Intelligent Octopus Flux, allowing Octopus to automatically manage their EcoFlow system for optimised charging, exporting, and savings.
Once connected through the Octopus app, the Intelligent Octopus Flux tariff assumes complete control of the system’s charging and discharging behaviour. It charges the battery during the most affordable import windows, exports energy during high-peak-rate periods, and helps reduce daytime reliance on the grid.
EcoFlow stated that this “hands-free optimisation increases monthly savings, boosts export income, and delivers a faster and more predictable return on investment for households with solar and a battery.”
Craig Bilboe, EcoFlow’s Country Manager UK, IE, & ANZ, said: “Customers have been asking for EcoFlow to integrate with Intelligent Octopus Flux, and we’re thrilled to deliver it. EcoFlow already supported Agile and Flux within our app, but adding Intelligent Flux brings a new level of automation, safety-led optimisation, and financial benefit to UK households.”
The PowerOcean Single-Phase system, which forms a key part of the compatible ecosystem, features long-life LFP battery technology with more than 6,000 cycles, a dedicated fire prevention module, and a multi-layered battery management system.
Its IP65-rated design supports reliable outdoor installation, and the system offers a 15-year warranty. The system’s capacity is expandable up to 45kWh.
The company concluded that with full Intelligent Octopus Flux compatibility now live, users gain a “fully automated, high-efficiency, high-safety energy ecosystem that actively works to lower bills and enhance home energy returns.”
