@rejul333 Even with a 48kw battery (which are not common) on a 3 phase system in Qld you would drop the battery SOC to zero in a smidge over 3 hours so the 4 hour window is honestly quite generous. Maybe you were hoping to capture some solar feed in between 3pm and 5pm?On a single phase system which in Qld is limited to 5kw feed in then it does change the equation. But I’m guessing that most people with single phase if they’ve done their homework or been given good advice won’t have a installed ...

@Tony9 ….. Oh yes I did forget doh 臘‍♂️

@Tony9 I have a 20kw 3 phase inverter so I can export up to 15kw. Makes it really easy to cover the daily supply charge and some.It does make financial sense for me to exhaust the battery right at 9pm to maximize the high battery feed-in rate and then to use the lower (20c) rate until the morning when the solar kicks in again. I only use about 0.5kw/hr from 9pm until sunrise so it’s about 4.5kw x 20c. It works out to about $130 approx per year better off to do this. Not really worth chasing on i ...

@Lester - I’m in Brisbane and on the Battery Rewards Plan. It’s a TOU plan; Daily Supply Charge is $1.60, Peak (4pm-9pm) 50c and all other times it’s 20c.I have a 20kw solar array and 40kw battery and feed in approx 25-30kw each night to max out the refund in gift cards. This is how my sums work for 12mths- $800 sign on credit if I stay for 12mths - $1600 battery feed in credit in gift cards - Nil TOU saves me approx $2000p.a- Approx $300p.a credit from solar feed in at 3c (this is after I cover ...
