Eclipse Power Save Challenge | Leeds News

Get ready for a major solar eclipse this Wednesday — the biggest in the UK since 1999 — and Octopus Energy’s asking you to power down between 6 and 8 PM to ease grid strain. As the moon blocks the sun, solar panels go dark just when demand spikes for dinner and TV. By cutting back for 30 minutes, you’ll earn a free hour of power Sunday. With July’s record solar output, this is a key moment to show how much we rely on renewables — and why helping the grid now saves money and the planet.
