Hi Jayden, Thanks for the response but that did quite answer my question. When I generate surplus power in the middle of the day that AGL sells back to the grid, I realise that AGL payment me a pre-agreed tariff however what happens when the actual price is less than this tariff or even negative? AGL presumably won't be selling power at negative prices. I saw that some of the commercial scale renewable companies actually get switched off (which protects them from selling power at negative prices ...

Living in Queensland we have started to see negative pricing more frequently due to surplus capacity. I was wondering what happens in regards to my exporting surplus solar to the network. Would AGL simply turn me off or could I actually be charged to provide power to the network?

Hi,I have recently install solar and AGL (via some subcontractor) upgraded my meters to Active Stream smart meters. When I look at the AGL app, during the middle of the day, with nothing running and solar cranking (currently I am generating at over 4.5 kw) the app says that I am still drawing power from the grid? How can this be possible. It also says I am selling loads of power to the grid (for a pittance) but why should I still be drawing power from the grid? Also I have both T11 and T33. Shou ...

Hi Jayden, No I can see from my Fronius Inverter analytics how much solar I am generating however I wanted to also know what my actual power consumption is as well. I didn't think my inverter would tell me this. For the last couple of years I have used a power monitor that an electrician installed to measure my power consumption. It would simply measure actual consumption at any moment and hence I could see when my power consumption spiked in the evenings etc. When AGL replaced my existing smart ...
