That's a pretty telling graph. Since you have good history production data shows the problem I would just open a support ticket in the app and reference those days.

Instantaneous readings can be misleading. When the system is doing a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) sweep it can show really voltage/current because by definition it is trying to find where the maximum power point is. You should look at energy output for a longer period of time (say a...

You are correct, you need to reduce your NBC's. Let's assume that NBCs are roughly 0.025/kWh. Based on your NBC charge, you imported around 19,830 kWh. Your actual net usage was 4560 kWh If you only imported what you actually needed, then the difference in cost is about $380 of NBCs (I'm...

I'm on NEM-MT (which translates to effectively NEM2). What is unclear is how PG&E will treat the system. I have a newer system (2021) and it appears that the NEM clock reset when they were installed. I don't think they can split the systems (they certainly don't have instrumentation...

Possibly, that was my original bet. I had predicted that I could get it for free. If NEM 3.0 had not happened in California I might have tried for it. I didn't want to risk having to install a replacement system and trigger NEM 3.0 for my other solar.

I just paid. In my Tesla account the document associated with system/site is now just the purchase agreement.

I went with option A. I tried to negotiate but couldn't get anywhere. So far, so good.

If it is at the end of the lease, they should give you a price. The place I expect to have leverage is if the contract has the free removal option at the end. Removing the system makes no sense for them, it is all expense. There is almost zero salvage value. It is in their interest to give...

Zero intervention drive from home to work. Not the first time. I drove onto the street and activated FSD. All surface streets. A couple of notable moments. There was a car was slow leaving the road way turning right into a driveway. The car didn't do any panic maneuvers. It barely slowed...

If it's at the end of the contract, the pricing is reasonable. I purchased my "leased" system last year. I looked into buying out the leased system *early* in the life of a system for an investment property. That didn't much sense since the buyout price was the basically the same as the...

Hrmmm, I might be in an odd state. I have several sites associated with my account at the same address due to purchases at different times. I had been working with support give me the ability to see the PV production system installed 4 years ago. Until recently, I only could see the aggregate...

Interesting, I unenrolled and then reenrolled, went into application pending about 2 weeks and today I see that I'm back in. My screen looks identical (the fleet home count) but I don't see an event today. It's possible, I'm "late" to this party. It's also possible that my system just...

I've seen (as others) this behavior. It was one of the nice improvements in V12, it isn't perfect but does pretty well.

I submitted the form about a week ago to be removed from the virtual power plan program (forgot to note the exact date) and saw availability to sign up for virtual power plant today.

As long as I'm still the driver in command I don't mind the "nags" which aren't really nags to me. Even as a "supervisor" I need be aware and alert. I consider having to be "engaged" with the system is an important safety benefit. Of course, I want "unsupervised" FSD at some point.
