@bazcurtis Interesting - thanks. I'm always wondering if I should swap to Agile - your average import rate over the month is around 60% of mine; in theory I should only import at off-peak @ 7.5p/kWh but there's always a small amount of use during peak periods (e.g. while the inverter catches up to the kettle being turned on etc).
Is your management/automation 100% hands-off, or do you need to manually tweak things on a regular/semi-regular basis?
@ChrisWarwick I assume you were looking at my April stats post. I do that for each month.
My inverter will pick the best Agile slots to use. I tell it how many slots I want to use. I need 6 to charge from flat. I could also pick minimum prices to charge if I wanted to. I have never used that.
The batteries always cover the peak times. The last week or so Agile has been pretty flat, around 15p kWh. You might find this interesting. Does not included export.
@bazcurtis ...I subscribe to Octopus Watch, but some of the tariffs (including Intelligent Go) are "unsupported" because cheap rates set by car charging aren't exposed in the Octopus API. As things stand at the moment, Octopus Watch claims my bill is cheaper than it would be on Agile, but I think that might be because it isn't taking everything into account. Your average import rate looks impressive...
