My tariff info is:
Export model: Net Daily
Credit Rates - Export Peak: 4.77 (it was 4.64, but changed when new rate came in... unsure if it affected previously entered figures)
Generation Peak: 14.9

Week 1 (yes I'm a little behind!) closed just ahead of target, but today has put it slightly behind. Still, this year going ok, but like a 7mm masonry drill - 'it's just a little bit boring'.
Mart.Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 20kWh battery storage. Two A2A units for cleaner heating. Two BEV's for cleaner driving.
