The payback on this is I pay 11p/kWh for import and get paid the same for export with no daily standing charge which suits me fine, however they have changed the rules and I no longer comply with them so am being moved off this tariff.Moxi wrote: ↑Wed Nov 17, 2021 9:31 am
I appreciate that this may not be as the National Grid would like though and could lead to people forecasting and holding back for peak prices but I don't see people willingly handing over physical control of their systems unless a fair and equitable contract can be produced - again wasn't / isn't this something Octopus are looking at ??

- Any size MCS-certified solar panel installation up to nine kWp per Powerwall installed.
- Annual consumption of daytime energy (from 07:00-19:30) remains less than 9,500 kWh per Powerwall-installed. (This is import from grid)
Too big a solar array is going to export more @ 11p / kWh and cost Octopus too much.
More than 9,500kWh import @ 11p / kWh is too cheap to sell a lot to the customer at peak times.
18.7kW PV > 110MWh generated
Ripple 6.6kW Wind + 4.5kW PV > 31MWh generated

I'd imagine they would be quite happy to buy units at 11p in the current market conditions.nowty wrote: ↑Wed Nov 17, 2021 5:09 pmThe new requirements of the "Tesla Energy Plan", and NOT to be confused with the "Intelligent Octopus Tariff (for Tesla cars)".

Their reasoning is,
