Shaun McCran Andrew Mitchell Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Rachael π³οΈβπ Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland Nice! Weβre having some issues currently in that one of the RCDβs keeps tripping, else weβd be self-sufficient and only exporting power by now too :(
John Baxendale Andrew Mitchell Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Rachael π³οΈβπ Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland Same story here, we were charging overnight between 2am and 5am to fill the battery. I've stopped doing that now, so I'm not drawing off the grid at all. By midnight I'm on 40% but it's full again by 10am next day
John Baxendale Shaun McCran Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Rachael π³οΈβπ Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland Thatβs grid. The house runs off battery during the day, and buys what it would have used from the solar for a lower price than the export price, between 2am-5am. If that makes sense! I donβt think that is gaming. Itβs just being a useful grid citizen.

Rachael π³οΈβπ Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland Itβs an important fight. Not a competition βΊοΈππ
Andrew Mitchell Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland It is but you're system is amazing and I'm determined to replicate it for the good of the planet! π
Andrew Mitchell Shaun McCran Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Rachael π³οΈβπ Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland Gotcha! Wish we had tariffs like that tbh!
Itβs like using a VCR, youβre not pirating content youβre time shifting π
Rachael π³οΈβπ Andrew Mitchell Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland I'll raise you ππ plus the panels on the garage which are out of this shot. Unfortunately not mine. Last month's exports (even after charging the 2 PW's and 2 EV's) was more than my generation for the month (I only have a 4.8kW system mind).
John Baxendale Andrew Mitchell Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Rachael π³οΈβπ Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland Needs a fair bit more research first. I suspect that I'll need to know info about it. Seems to be a lot of data about people oversizing them, and consuming a load of power that's wasted
Weβre especially keen to hear from participants of Octopus Energy #SavingSessions British Gas #PeakSave EDF π¬π§ #BeatThePeak and other National Grid ESO Demand Flexibility Service schemes. Please help spread the word!
Shaun McCran Andrew Mitchell Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Rachael π³οΈβπ Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland Definitely needs an installer that knows what theyβre doing, they seem to be rare! Heat Geek can help with that!
Andrew Mitchell Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland You realise you are making me spend more money on adding more PV right? You'll still out perform my system even after upgrades but it'll at least be vaguely in the same ballpark π
Rachael π³οΈβπ Andrew Mitchell Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland I too have PV envyβ¦ whereβs my installers number againβ¦
Andrew Mitchell Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Rachael π³οΈβπ Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland That's an amazing amount! I thought I was doing well at 50kwh but that's mad! Your peak is a lot higher than mine at 14kwh tho. I've got a 6kw inverter limit.
Shaun McCran Andrew Mitchell Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Rachael π³οΈβπ Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland Free power, why not?! π
Heat pump not next on the list?
John Baxendale Andrew Mitchell Octopus Energy πβ‘οΈ Saving Sessions Alerts Greg Jackson Philip Steele Rachael π³οΈβπ Sarah Go Greenπ Andy Stanford-Clark Home Energy Scotland After this story I'm looking into fitting a second inverter
