Full months figures for January
GivE Octopus bill
Gen 209

Con 377


Import 425 472

Export 324 231
Normally the imp / exp figures are reasonably close but last months are wayout
also I lost contact the installers two years ago (administration) so not sure if I should be doing something with the system, batterty conditioning etc.
Thanks for any advice

Cully The GE numbers seem a bit skewed : generation + import ought to roughly match consumption + export, but here 209+425 = 634, but 377 + 324 = 701. Any battery cycle losses would tend to reduce the output side.

I have 164 + 911 = 1075 ; 1034 + 24 = 1058 (no point comparing against bill since GE doesn't see EV usage)
Report also says battery charge = 383, discharge = 366 so those cycle losses pretty much accounts for the difference, I think.

Thanks DD
My last few months each show that gen+imp = con+exp equates to the same figure
I will presume its a one off and see wjhat happens next month.
just thinking about the battery question I asked, do I need to condition it?
