When looking at the results for tariffs I can see that the region is not taken into account. This are a defined list of GSP ID's.

I think just having this as a variable is by far the easiest, rather than trying to get it back from somewhere, looks like the octopus api doesn't return it, that'd have been ideal.

I have looked into this and see no reason this is worth persuing, given users will have to copy / paste numerous bits of information from their account page making this partially generated would be an unnecesary step. Would also require taking in some information like post code which I don't wish to be part of.
