  1. End of December. Germany. −5 °C outside.
    ~3.8 kW solar production — and 1.2 kW going straight into the heat pump.

    Not “free heating”.
    Recycled sunlight. ☀️➡️🔥
    No grid import. No battery cycling. Just direct winter solar doing useful work.

    This is why cold, clear days are PV magic.

  6. A quotation from Shakespeare

    GAUNT: His rash fierce blaze of riot cannot last,
       For violent fires soon burn out themselves;
       Small showers last long, but sudden storms are short;
       He tires betimes that spurs too fast betimes;
       With eager feeding food doth choke the feeder;
       Light vanity, insatiate cormorant,
       Consuming means, soon preys upon itself.

    William Shakespeare (1564-1616) English dramatist and poet
    Richard II, Act 2, sc. 1, l. 37ff (2.1.37-44) (1595)

  13. I did manage to get a crude pin-hole #eclipse pic and have so far steered the dishwasher around needing to #import from the #grid - #selfConsumption FTW

  14. I did not get much done #today, but I think that that is OK for a Sunday! It has been sunny, I recovered from a slight hangover from yesterday's fun evening, and I did tweak a minor system parameter to improve #selfConsumption...

  15. Just manually #scheduling my #dishwasher run water-heating demand around a 30:1 swing in PV generation - blue sky direct sun to hail and on its way back - #flexibleDemand #selfConsumption ...

  16. Well obviously I found ways to avoid getting on with my #research (though I did take a good first step), and instead have made a small change which should significantly improve #solar #selfConsumption by the #heatPump via the #battery...

  17. Second Enphase AC Battery Home Storage (2021-09-15) - And then there were two! 40 minutes to double our grid-coupled storage. #storage #grid #selfConsumption - m.earth.org.uk/Enphase-AC-Batt

  19. Interesting to see this project for energy communities & collective self-consumption in The Netherlands starting, a great fit for EVs and shared ones even more so:
