Solar panel production figures

last few days have been more of the usual:
10th: 1.8 kWh generated none exported
11th: 2.74 kWh
12th: 2.66 kWh
13th: 2.12 kWh

Today though has been a wild start, 1kW since 8:30 and there's not a cloud in the sky here. Too bad I'm still just getting the hang of the tariff beta card on the givenergy portal and it's charged the battery to 100% overnight when I wanted a gap to cover this possibility. Washing on, heating on! No export tariff yet so don't want to waste the electrons.
 
8.3 generated and 4.5 exported.

My charging point install is finally being completed tomorrow (after 2½ months! :rolleyes:) so I can get on Octopus' EV saver tariff (Intelligent Go but 6p for import instead of 7p). Does anyone else here force discharge on Intelligent Go? I haven't been on normal Octopus Go as 8.5p/15p didn't seem worth it with losses, but 6p / 15p looks better on paper.
 
Plenty of people do yes. I seldom have any battery power left so I don’t bother.

I would think octopus would prefer you to force export between 5pm and 7pm at this time of year, not that they can control when you do it mind.
