Green energy boost

smart meter June 19

We have been getting an energy boost recently on our solar panels with rechargeable battery back up. The long summer days (at last they are here, somewhat delayed due to the weather) means our panels are generating far more energy than we use, The surplus is stored in the battery and used overnight. Our smart meter is showing just how little energy we are buying in. The other evening, it showed we paid only 66p for the day's energy - but that includes the standing charge of 48p. So we bought in only 18p worth of electricity and gas. We could do with a few more days like that!
