Octopus Go?

[Jomarkh]

How many panels do you have and what inverter to put that much back into the grid?
I thought you only need to use a G99? If you have a5kW inverter.

This is at work. One site we have 140kw of panels on the roof. On a nice sunny day, with 2 cars charging at 7kw and running the whole building including several AC units, we still have a surplus of 40kw.

The other 2 sites are a bit more Conservative with 'only' around 75kw of panels. All have industrial ASHPs to supplement the gas boilers during the winter.

Ill have a look at the letter and grab some screenshot next week, it's all rather impressive.

Are the current tariff rates for Octopus Go for new customers locked for a year or is that a silly question?
As it stands the higher day rate compared to my current SSE deal makes the move uneconomical but I’m thinking if it’s guaranteed for a year but SSE isn’t….

Anyone know?

Go is always for a year.

Go is always for a year.

Thanks. That’s really tempting if it’s fixed through the Autumn price rises and my SSE isn’t.

We get a snotty letter every few weeks for ukpn because apparently exporting 40kw is not acceptable

Ooops we shall see since I'm not too far from you and under the UK Power networks region.
