Cosy Octopus vs E.ON Next Pumped: which heat pump tariff wins in 2026?

Cosy Octopus and E.ON Next Pumped are the two most recommended heat pump tariffs in the UK right now. They take opposite approaches: Cosy concentrates deep discounts into 8 hours across three windows but charges a steep peak rate; Next Pumped spreads cheaper rates across 21 hours of the day with no extreme peak. Which one wins depends almost entirely on whether you can avoid those three peak hours.
