Modul 3 hat bei #Tibber doch ganz gut funktioniert technisch.

Die Brutto-Durchschnittspreise lagen bei uns damit wiefolgt:

- November: 25,12 ct/kWh
- Dezember: 24,15 ct/kWh
- Januar: 26,19 ct/kWh

Bin gespannt auf #OctopusGo

Anyone got a #QUBEV home charger and on #OctopusGo?

November Home Energy stats from #HomeAssistant

Averaged almost 30kwh a day - a lot, but we are going into the first winter with a Heat Pump, and there's an EV to occasionally charge too. Most of that is imported during the cheap period of #OctopusGo at 7.5p/kwh

Almost 70% fossil free fuel is excellent, even in November - the 114kwh generated by the solar is still helping - that would have been £45 of day time power we would have needed to import.

Here's today's #solarPV #batteries #octopusGO graph. I pulled down 10kWhrs in the early hours at 12p/kwhr. Our #solarpv generated 5kWhrs. We cooked dinner in the oven, ran the washing machine twice, etc. Battery still 40% full.

@TimWardCam I put mine in dec 2020. Got about 5 quotes all very similar pricing. But prices have went up now, old supply/demand. I saved £630 in 2021 first full year now it will be £1200 at least due to electricity price doubling. I have 4.3kwp array and 8.2kwh storage. On #OctopusGo so charge batteries when cheap overnight in the winter and then hardly import at all. Charge Mrs electric car too overnight at 7.5p/kWh. October pic below. Notes includes #electriccar charging.

We're now on our second #RenaultZoe and we love it. Currently waiting for survey for #SolarPV on our flat garage roof (house roof is too awkwardly shaped).
We will overprovision on #BatteryStorage because we are on the #OctopusGo tariff and can top it up cheaply overnight. Also, batteries are only VAT zero rated when bought with solar.

Loving the combination of #solarPV #batterystorage and #OctopusGO tariff. Filled the batteries in the early hours. Put some washing on. Topped the #PHEV car up when the sun came out. Cooked tea and all the usual domestic stuff. Pulled a bit from the grid when the sun went in etc. but our bill is around 70% lower than it would be, even in November, UK. 53degN.
