My average energy reduction in relative terms was 95%.

But my absolute energy saving was 0.31kWh.

Which earned me about a quid.

But hey I'd do it again!

£170 for all 4 sessions, makes November cost not too bad.
Just need GivEnergy to replace my wrongly supplied inverter so I can export faster and also get my baseline up between 5pm-7pm.
Still work to be done.
Plus I wish I had some ripple turbine income :surrender:

I ordered a gen 2 and they supplied a gen 1. Thanks to your detective work on another thread.
All mine and the installer’s paperwork shows gen 2 but GivEnergy have said they are looking into it !!!!!! :evil:
