Your savings with a 5 kWh battery
The battery charges overnight at 9.4p and powers your home during the day, avoiding the 39.3081p daytime rate. The saving is the difference between what the stored energy would have cost at the day rate and what it cost to charge overnight, allowing for charging losses.

daytime rate (North Wales & Merseyside)
per day
(5 kWh battery)
5 kWh × 39.3081p − (5 ÷ 0.9) kWh × 9.4p = 196.5405p − 52.2222p = 144.3183p saved per day
144.3183p × 365 days = £526.76/year, best case
Best-case payback: £2,499 ÷ £526.76 = about 4.7 years
Rates from the Octopus Energy API (product GO-FIX-12M-26-10-14, Octopus Go 12M Fixed, region D, direct debit, checked 15 October 2026). The 90% round-trip efficiency is our assumption, because EcoFlow does not publish one for the STREAM. This is a best case: one full cycle every day, with all of it used at the day rate. Real savings will be lower. Best-case payback on £2,499 fully installed is about 4.7 years. See how we worked it out.
