Re: BOOST button, does it use available solar power before using PEAK power

I have lodged a complaint with the ACCC. What AGL is doing is actually highly illegal. They have programmed the meters to even charge you for your own solar power if you try to use it for heating your own hot water. Market manipulation. Collusion. Forced purchasing. It actually breaks many Laws. ACCC can issue massive fines. AGL have written the software to charge you for your own solar power when you use it to heat your hot water system, in SA. Huge million dollar fines and possible jail sente ...

Re: BOOST button, does it use available solar power before using PEAK power

AGL presented an answer in the forum to my question. Their answer was an outright deceitful like. Answer with relevance to SA. Go on AGL, answer with that in mind. You outright lied. In SA you have programmed the meters to not allow off grid power from 100 solar panels to heat my HWS. It is my solar power, my Hot water system and you have put in a program that makes a customer always have to pay for hot water to be heated even if they have 100 solar panels to heat it. I can be exporting 5,000wat ...

Re: BOOST button, does it use available solar power before using PEAK power

AGL lie. They refuse to answer the question. They rang me and said they would have an answer within 48 hours and would ring me back. That was 9 days ago. AGL just lie.They have set their meters to refuse to allow you to use off grid solar power to charge hot water. They will only allow you to always have to pay for heating hot water. They have set the system to always charge you even if you had 100 panels on your roof. AGL have manipulated the program to always charge you. Acct 82055518

Re: Solar Smart Meters

The answer by AGL is not true. AGL have set meters up so that if you decide to use your excess solar energy to heat your hot water by pressing the boost button, it will charge you for the electricity off the grid instead of using your own excess solar energy
