Doing some data modelling to see if a solar sharer tariff would be better than our current import/export with battery.

My first naive model from actual data (not time shifting usage into the sponge hours) is pretty marginal in summer, and rather expensive in winter. Which is at odds with some napkin maths I did last month.

(Pretty sure I've stuffed something up - worst case should be importing at %50 more than my current flat rate, not multiples).

Now that the longer days are here, solar production at the house has gone up a lot, compared to winter, even with one panel down, due to a broken microinverter. I’m glad Enphase and our local solar installer are providing good service and warranty repair. Thanks, Highpoint Solar. #Enphase #solar #solarpower #homesolar
