Hi, I’ve had solar for few years and have recently invested in a battery. I am on a feed in tariff (FIT) so sending power back to the grid is a bit of a waste to me, I get paid for what I generate, not what I send to grid.
My question is this - if I have used the majority of electric I need for the day and my battery is full, what can I use the remaining solar generation for rather than send it to the grid? I have been doing extra washing machine loads and dishwasher but am now at the point where everything is spotless.
Should I look to come off of the FIT tariff? This would be worse for me in the cooler months when I don’t export anything.
Is there something I can use at 800-1kw that could make me money?
Thanks for reading
