Well the end of some electricity meters at least:
"But the Long Wave transmitter in Droitwich (pictured above) won't
fall silent just yet. The energy industry, which relies on the BBC
carrying the Economy 7 teleswitching signal on BBC Radio 4 LW, has
negotiated an extension of broadcasts. There are still nearly a

teleswitching signal." ...

"industry body Energy UK announced the LW signal would continue to be
broadcast until 30th June 2025."
