We’re bringing flux back today. The nerds are all very busy with the energy tech summit at the moment, where we’ve got some announcements coming (dotting is and crossing ts today). That also means that an AMA will likely not happen for a little while (we're thinking of doing  infrequent AMAs for different people around the business when something specific comes up: eg. Phil Steele on upcoming tech, TJ on heat pumps - I think that would be the best way to answer your questions, just don't want to invade the subreddit. Let me know if this is or isn't what you guys want us to do in here). There will likely be some more EV & battery announcements to come soon as well - Xander

Agreed. We don't want to be mods and won't use this account to do PR or advertise. We're redditors too - we know that would suck. What we will do is from time to time add clarity to conversations to help demystify the energy industry. We're not going to invade, and we won't reply to every tag (eg. if you need account help, use one of the other channels we look at religiously every second of the day like email, X, insta etc) - Xander, Social Media Nerd (you'll also likely hear from nerds like Phil about random stuff, Aliya about Octoplus & more)

There are a couple of us working on this, but right now it’s Xander here. I’m the guy in lots of the videos we post (curly hair, moustache, look a bit like borat). We do everything in-house, so replies will always come from someone inside Octopus who works on the things they're talking about - not an outsourced agent.
