[QUOTE="Chrisbee, post: 527988, member: 34814"] Could you expand on the free EV charging please? (Does this need its own thread?) I have Solar PV with 4.8kWh Li-Po batteries and a hot water diverter. My EV charging is only via 13A socket at present. 2015 Nissan Leaf 30kWh battery. EV takes a steady 2.6kW for hours on end, (12 if it's empty). PV output is up and down with every cloud that passes, house battery looks after the dips nicely and is always full by sundown this time of year. Unless the car is on charge. My max ever daily PV production was 30kWh but that's very rare. We use say half of that in the house anyway. So a good proportion of car charging has to come from the grid. Is there a smart way (charger?) to divert excess solar to the car? [/QUOTE]
