Some people will be able to earn money for cutting back on their electricity usage as part of a scheme that is taking place again later on Friday.
The so-called Demand Flexibility Service aims to reduce demand on the country’s electricity network during peak times.
National Grid ESO, the network operator, says the scheme does not mean electricity supplies are at risk. It will run on days the network operator decides on from 30 October until March 2024.

The Demand Flexibility Service, to give it its official name, involves energy suppliers paying customers a small bonus if they use less electricity than usual, at a particular time.
For example, people could save energy by opting to use the microwave instead of the oven, or not using the washing machine until later.
It started the scheme last year and ran its first event of this winter earlier this week.
You must have an electricity smart meter installed and your electricity provider has to offer the scheme.
