I use a lot of electric everyday, and have shifted charging batteries, car charging and hot water to 5-7pm weekdays. It would be higher but Tesla hasn’t been home a couple,elf days between 5-7pm so no energy use at those times as using home batteries.Stinsy wrote: ↑Wed Jan 17, 2024 12:04 pmHow do you get a 12kWh baseline?

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
I’ll accept defeat now, I can only export at 2.6 less my house use which rarely goes below 1 kWh when exporting…….nowty wrote: ↑Wed Jan 17, 2024 12:09 pmFunny enough my baselines about 12kW as well, it would have been higher if it was a 5:00pm to 6:00pm slot, but we cant have everything.![]()
All on IOG cheapslot too, my usage just time shifted.
I reckon this is going to be a £45 payout session for me once the export is added.![]()

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
I would not be surprised if we have another session tomorrow or an outside chance on Friday. After that the wind is blowing very strong for the rest of the month and its going to be much milder so if they need to have two sessions in a month I can't see any other time.

I'm ready, in it for the draw and the mellowness.
LED lights from Turkey very effective

Oh yeah, and a beer.

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
I got home from work at 17:26, wife telling my I can't turn the lights on, oh and there's a coffee on the side for you. Feet up for an hour and catch up on some Youtube on the tablet.
My baseline is 0.02 kWh, and I exported 7.78 kWh, so that is 7.8 or £17.55

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
That went like clockwork, I am expecting a saving of 20kWh+

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
Cool. Software worked a treat. I got auto-enrolled at 1030 or 1100. Then the battery got used until it hit the minimum required to service the period. Finally the inverter switched into zero grid usage at the correct time. All whilst at work 
Just need my export tariff so I can make proper money. For all that effort I probably saved about £5

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov

SWMBO had an idea, ordered some more of the motion sensor nightlights we have on the bed end here in Scotland for Turkey. Just for the peeing you understand but also for the powercuts out there off the back of tonights self-induced one.
