Re: "Net Billing" in MA

You don’t do anyone any favours by pretending that their circumstances are not of their own making. Before I respond Stinsy, I want to confirm that last line is what you truly believe when you say "Anyone"? You can take offence at anything anyone says if you try hard enough. Hopefully my ...

Re: "Net Billing" in MA

Octopus nolonger recommend batteries with their solar installs. Which is a big change from a few years ago when battery-only installs were commonplace.
