We smashed our August solar record, beating our previous high by 58.4k kWh! ☀️ Even with the heat waves and AC running, production stayed strong (though it did mean less spare energy for export). 🌡️⚡

Generator or Solar Battery: What Fits Your Outage Pattern?
Solar battery stores energy, runs silently, ideal for short frequent outages. Diesel generator burns fuel on demand, suits outages lasting days. Batteries cost 300 to 700 dollars per kWh, near zero running cost, vs generators at 300 to 1000 per kW plus 0.25 to 0.80 per kWh fuel. Generators hit 65 to 100 decibels and need regular servicing, while batteries need almost none upkeep at all.

July was a scorcher! ☀️ We smashed our production records, hitting a new high and beating our previous July record by 171.90 kWh. Despite the heat, we kept costs low with smart battery management and the Intelligent Octopus Go tariff. Check out how we managed to achieve a negative bill this month! ⚡️

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).

I just finished the first version of a small software for managing the balcony solar plant of some family members. It works completely without any cloud or any other people's computers or even an internet connection.

There's three panels and an inverter with a battery. Any power initially is used in the household, then if anything is left it's put into the battery for later use, or if the battery is full, fed it into the public grid (to get a small financial compensation). Or if you want to, you can override that and just charge the battery, or even charge it from the grid.

Of course the inverter originally needs a cloud connection and comes with an app that needs a cloud connection and obviously is described as AI-powered very smart whatever. But there is a documented API for getting and setting some values! Interoperability! Without the cloud, there's hardly any logic built in. So I had to create it myself.

It's just a few HTTP requests, json, a SQLite database, and some very basic HTML.

My home battery cannot see the car charger and the car will not charge from the home battery.
