If I'm not dreaming, I think one of the threads posted something similar to the title above about the cars not fully implementing something (generally known as the Rolec problem). FYI my MG5 exhibited a similar issue over the weekend (and I don't have a Rolec). Can you put a link here please? Ta

My maximum load since I've had a charger/BEV has been just short of 13kW - that's during the Go cheap period with the battery pile taking 3kW, the charger 7kW and presumably both dishwashers, the washing machine and the dryer all on the go (pun intended).

I had a guy around from EON last week to read the generation meter so it is happening. They don't care how much you actually export; I've had solar diversion for almost as many years as my PV system, a battery storage system for over two years and now a BEV car and charger capable of diverting...

There is essentially no diversity applied to instantaneous water heaters aka electric showers. There's a BS code for this but a useful table can be seen here. The YT video which shows how a Zappi copes with this circumstance (plus other charger installation gotchas) is here and definitely...

You won't. Apart from the fact that your FiT contract isn't/won't be with Octopus and therefore whoever pays you the FiT won't know, there's nothing they can do to force you to do give up deemed export.

If you want to while away a few hours, look up diversity calculations on the web and get even more confused. One of the advantages of the Zappi (and the OpenEVSE I use - although I don't need to use that facility) is that you can throttle the charge automatically based on house load - there's...

Why? The days of smart meters counting export as consumption are long gone and you aren't forced to give up deemed export/move to metered export. Having a smart meter gives access to tariffs such as Octopus Go and that's a no-brainer IMHO if you have a 7kW home charger. My wife's Zoe...

Dorset Council have teamed up with an external body and have started replacing and adding new charge points to all their existing charging locations. So all the old go to be replaced with Type 2 22kW and some extra ones too. The next phase is to roll out chargers to the car parks that...

Not all Type 2 are 7kW (or 22kW). The PodPoints at my local Sainsburys are just 3kW unfortunately.

They haven't been taken over ... UK's Octopus Energy valued at $2bn after Japan supply deal
