With energy prices going through the roof in the uk its time for a solar panel with battery install. So looking at what integrations are avaible and working in hubitat. Ideally i would like to know if im exporting electric, what level i have in the batterys what the predicted solar energy is for t…

I live in Connecticut. We get charged for electricity & service: This is from a "winter" bill (541 KWH), No A/C and we heat with Oil. I do not have solar. Cost per KWH of electricity used: $0.11484 Cost per KWH of service to deliver energy (lines etc): $0.14 Fixed cost: per month for CEO's …

We pay a daily charge for having an electric supply , the amount used in kw/h and if we export back to the electric grid My charges are £0.4339 a day £0.28455 per kw/h to use Paid £0.051kw/h to export

[image] JohnRob: Question regarding your solar installation. When the grid goes down our solar systems cannot generate AC mains on their own. I understand the electronics would be costly. However will the solar provide DC energy in some form? John Im looking to have solar panels and a batte…

Thank, interesting info. For me however that cost would pay for 10 years of my full electric bill. Not worth it here. Oh I do have a gas generator that has been able to keep our food cold and the house warm when the power is out. I guess I'll stay that way for a while. I did read a few case st…

[image] JohnRob: Question regarding your solar installation. When the grid goes down our solar systems cannot generate AC mains on their own. I have 2 Tesla Powerwall batteries (13.5 kWh X 2) so the solar panels will continue to provide power to the house and re-charge the batteries. Our use …

NE Ohio, USA $0.0539/KWh consumption $0.030/KWh distribution charge (includes CEO yacht "fee") Ohio recently had the local incumbent Elec utility bribe the politicians to pass a bogus fee to get the consumers to pay for the decommissioning of 2 nuclear plants. Its making its way through the court…

I looked into it 4 years ago and it looked 15+ years to repay. But now that our energy bills have basically trebled and we are looking like another 50% in 6 months time its very attractive with a roi around 6 years

I looked into solar some years ago as well. Their "projections" of energy cost increases were wildly over blown. My bill in Sept of 1985 for 581 KWH was $57 My most recent bill for 541 KWH is $138 37 year span; my 1985 bill in today's dollars would be 2.64 * (57 *541/581) = $140 :astonished: …

Anything to read Victron data? Thinking about getting a Victron Cerbo GX which has a ethernet connection to monitor my MPPT controllers remotely using there free remote internet portal. They have an API: VRM API v2 Documentation | Victron Energy documentation

What solar integrations are there for hubitat?
