Energy rates are high right now, so I'm experimenting with Agile Outgoing, which has been higher than fixed rate pretty much all day for the past week.
Predbat has picked up the tarrif changes, and now it has plans for my little solar setup:
Export directly in the morning when the rates are good, leaving the battery idle.
At lunch, when the rates drop a little, we're going to charge the battery and then discharge it at peak rates, getting to the end of the day with a 15% buffer

So, for the second day the rates have changed substantially, there is a lot of wind about and I'm getting about 6p around midday, rather than 12. As long as the peaks remain good, this isn't terrible. I now get access to cheap electric around lunch (rather than export) and can make up the "losses" during the peak period. It's also healthier for the grid
