[QUOTE="SimonF, post: 546344, member: 37008"] I had a Growatt solar installation in August last year, including a battery. The inverter and battery are installed outside as we have no loft due to a conversion. Since the installation the Growatt/shinephone app has consistently recorded that we take very little from the grid. Our battery even in the winter did not get less than 60% full. But this seems to make very little difference to our bills with Octopus. The Octopus app shows us using far more from the grid. The amount of electricity being used shows on both apps as very similar but all of it is from the grid according to Octopus. The shinephone app also has a daily error in the events list - the error is 1-3-7 no utility, I've not found anything explaining what this means. Can anyone advise if I am being optimistic about what the installation should do or is the a problem with the set up/metering? [/QUOTE]
