🆕 blog! “30 months to 3MWh - some more home battery stats”

Back in August 2023, we installed a Moixa 4.8kWh Solar Battery to pair with our solar panels. For the last year and a half it has chugged away slurping up electrons and sending them back as needed. Its little fan whirrs and the lights on its Ethernet port flicker happily as it does its duty.

I estimate…

Its little fan whirrs and the lights on its Ethernet port flicker happily as it does its duty. I estimate that it has saved us around 3 MegaWatt hours since it was commissioned. In monetary terms,…

I was hoping to get more like 6kW of solar rather than <3. A 25kWh battery could run the house in the autumn too, tbf
