Oct 14 at 15:34 | comment | added | Chris H | 10 years on, the answer is more relevant - installations in the UK have a maximum export rate, which can be as low as 3.6kW. Mine is 5kW, but my panels can produce 7kWp. I also have a battery and can adjust when I charge, but still end up wasting power in summer. A dump load would be useful there (@410gone, in case you are still around) | |
