Re: Fairwork or class action

They haven't billed you that, but I agree, the estimates for analogue meters is usually very high, and this is despite AGL saying it's based on past similar periods. There should be a meter reading contractor out before your next bill is due, then they will send you a bill based on actual usage.If for some reason it's an estimated bill (no access to meter, dog present, etc) then you can upload your own reading at any time to have it recorded. At my workshop, the gate is often locked, and there ...

Re: How to check if my solar system is gross-metered or net-metered?

We are on 3 phase here, with solar through 2 phases / 2 inverters, and it all goes into the system, what we use daily in the home, and what we export. Edit, the op's question from May 2023 . . . yes, you sell to AGL at the pitiful FIT, you buy back at premium retail tariffs.Of course you should be using as much of your production during the day to reduce those retailers tariffs, this is where solar saves you. Eg. Here in SA, you make 50kwh a day through the meter, that's $2.You use say 10kw at 4 ...

Re: AGL app information incorrect

..Heya @Webbys18 . . .The AGL app solar chart shows what went through the meter (sold to grid). Did you take off daily solar production what you used in the home during solar productive hours ? Their app doesn't record what solar you produced in total, just what they get from data that went through the meter.Hopefully you used a lot more in the home during the day, that's where the real savings are with solar. For example, yesterday I produced 71.82kwh, AGL app shows solar export of 60.68kwh.
