i just found some more amps...............
Batteries are not a economic viability yet. Using your power during the day when the PV system is outputing will help protect you from the new solar feed in penalties.So after seeing this little article today, been thinking about alternative uses for my solar panels on my roof...
Power companies get green light to charge solar owners for exporting to grid
Australians with rooftop solar panels will face new charges for exporting power to the grid from 2025 — but the Australian Energy Market Commission says it has listened to feedback and households will have a range of options and incentives to choose from.www.abc.net.au
Who has their solar wired in to only heat their water?
Also those with batteries? What brands, etc.
EDIT: Also in light of the reduced (halved) feed-in tarriffs...
Yeah, using during the day is a little hard with work 5 days out of 7 unfortunately.Batteries are not a economic viability yet. Using your power during the day when the PV system is outputing will help protect you from the new solar feed in penalties.
The article below might help with your decision on the HWS
PV HWS
Our HWS is not on off peak. So we have it using its inbuilt timer to turn on during the day whilst the solar panels are fired up. Mind you, our HWS is a Sanden heat pump so it's perhaps four times more efficient than the usual element based HWS...only takes 1 kW to heat water each day.So after seeing this little article today, been thinking about alternative uses for my solar panels on my roof...

Still waiting for handover but the Fronius 12.5 inverter was maxxing out when I went down there... 12,550 !!!should be a good system
Old fashioned timers with pegs work well.Yeah, using during the day is a little hard with work 5 days out of 7 unfortunately.
Delay starts on dishwasher etc is about the extent of it.
And... mine - 3 months in I'm $400 in credit.
Nice, good day is 100kwh (sorry if the case is wrong)
Which electricity company are you using. A few here in SA are capping inputs or only offering a few cents per kW Exported.And... mine - 3 months in I'm $400 in credit.

Woah how big is your system? 100kWh in a day is solid.And... mine - 3 months in I'm $400 in credit.

Ergon, no choice up hereWhich electricity company are you using.

Must be running an engineering business with lots of welders?Ergon, no choice up here
16.65, 12kW inverter, three phase meter
Ha, no, new build, the price was rightMust be running an engineering business with lots of welders?
Makes sense, I have 7.2 of panels on a 6kW inverter and a big day is anything over 50kWhErgon, no choice up here
