[QUOTE="AIman1, post: 489157, member: 32034"] Thanks binky for quick run of choices. I wasn't aware of new payment system starting from next year. Currently my FIT rates works out as appx 18p per kwh of generation (assuming 50% export). Any indicative rate offered in the new scheme yet? A quick search on the intenet couldn't give me any number yet. For the 1st point on meter I see even SolarEdge meter using clamp on devices to read the usage and export, what is the other option you mentioned above? Coming back to the battery system, as you said there are two options one where I use SolarEdge product range which is obviously expensive (£200+ for meter and £1000 for StorEdge) which will be more oem, all dc system. Would I need to buy a new inverter to convert stored battery power back or existing SolarEdge inverter will be used for that purpose? Does it affect my FIT status? Would this mess up the FIT meter readings,. Do I need DNO permission in this approach? I am sure I won't be the first one to get something like this done so are there any wiring diagrams to understand the both the setup? Any help here will be highly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
