Very expensive

This tariff's rate does not change through the day, so there is no next rate, no cheapest and no dearest to show separately.

These are gas rates, in pence per kWh of gas. They are not comparable with the electricity rates elsewhere on this site: a kWh of gas and a kWh of electricity cost different amounts and do different work.

This is the gas page. See the main Octopus Tracker page.

Points are interactive: hover, focus or select one for exact values. Shaded band is the cheapest-to-dearest spread within each month; the line is the duration-weighted mean. 3 periods are drawn from part of the calendar rather than all of it: Oct 2022 (4 of 31 days), Nov 2022 (6 of 30 days), Sept 2026 (12 of 30 days). A month is partly counted where a version went on or came off sale inside it, and the current month is always still in progress. They are drawn hollow.

Each month shows the version of Octopus Tracker Gas you could actually have signed up to then, so the line follows the tariff through its successive versions rather than any one product code. Older versions carry on publishing rates for months after they stop selling; those are not averaged in, because nobody could buy them. Drawn from the stored daily rollups across every payment method the tariff publishes; where a tariff publishes more than one, the rates above show the direct-debit one and this line sits between them.

There is no price cap comparison on this page. Ofgem caps gas and electricity separately, and the comparison this site makes is against the electricity cap, so there is nothing here a gas rate can honestly be measured against.

About Octopus Tracker Gas

This is the gas side of Octopus Tracker: a variable gas rate tied to wholesale gas prices and reset once a day rather than held for a quarter or a year. It works the same way as the electricity version, in that the rate follows what Octopus pays on the wholesale market, so it falls when wholesale gas is cheap and rises when it is not. Rates on this page are pence per kilowatt hour of gas. That is a different commodity from electricity: the two figures read the same way but they are not comparable with each other.
