Only a cheap one this time - £2.25 per kWh - we've been spoilt with the £4 per kWh sessions

And they still haven't published the results of the last few sessions on my portal - what's taking them so long?!

[Stinsy]

I don;t know what takes them so long. Scroll up this thread for a link where you can use data direct from Octopus to figure out how much you made...

GOOD ENERGY are doing a slot 17:30 to 18:30 today.
They say payment will be made after March 2024.

There is no information available to tell you what you will be paid per slot.

As I’m ut north, I’ve primed SHMBO with a ban on washing machine, microwave, and kettle use during 5:30pm to 6:30pm saving session slot. I will also be remotely turning off the WiFi enabled A2A HPs from my phone.

I cannot force discharge the main battery inverter without logging in via the local network so that’s out.
But I have added an additional programme to it to charge at zero watts between 5.30pm and 6.30pm tonight so it will effectively be disabled.

I have my supplementary battery inverter Sofar MS3000SP unit set up in test mode to charge over cheap slot hours and to discharge at 2.75kW over peak period. The grid to it is disconnected via a power contractor controlled by a WiFi socket. With the grid disconnected it just sits there in error mode forever.

About 5:28pm I shall be turning on the grid to it remotely from my phone, it will countdown one minute, then ramp up slowly to 2.75kW forced discharge.

I reckon I should make about £2.50 this time which should pay for most of todays power at cheap slot rates.

Total miscalculation in my last post.

More like £6 and will pay for all my energy today.

Almost 2.6kW being exported.

Feckin disaster, export dropped about 1kW, I think the kitchen heated floor has come on.

There is always something you forget.

Its even better when you know all you have to do is leave the house.
Walk towards the garage.
Change over house load switch to inverter.

Try tooo get back in the house with Noooo door Keys.
