Fantastic cost savings from solar+battery, one year after installation.

those time picker cards are nice, hadn't seen them before.

the DFS has been about as £££ worthwhile as the power-ups, even though there have been way fewer events. The power-ups generally mean I load-shift from the IO off-peak at 7p/kWh to the power-up at 0p/kWh. In Feb we got free power worth £19 through power-ups and earned £19 from DFS. Total cost for the month including standing charge was £30.
Total electricity consumed so far in December: 618kWh (house and car)
Total cost of electricity consumed so far December including standing charge: minus £7.68
Crazy.
Saving even more money with solar + home batteries.
I revisit my earlier cost analysis now that winter has arrived, and show how the National Grid Demand Flexibility Service, and the Octopus Power-up scheme have had a significant impact on our costs.
