Going through some other posts, I figured it is what it is. I am now concentrating only on data points for previous day(s), because I can see the trend in my spreadsheet, and also, as I plug even the most current data, I can see what my real-time charges are. With my previous Tiered system, it...

I am missing the birds eye view for all actives in one single graph. Would would tell me everything. I think they can still add to this probably below the 1st screen. It gives a quick health check of your usage, solar production, sending to & from PW and Grid. I don't like single graph for...

dlevens, I see you sent me a message, and I replied which went to the webmaster, tried to send you the spreadsheet, but there was no email address in your message to send to. Sorry, I tried.

Thanks Need. This is insightful. Since I am at the early stage of my TOU bill, I based in what I saw from others. I hope you are correct. I will be keeping an eye on the next few bills and at the 12th month. As it becomes more clear I will update my calculations. thanks again Need.

Correct, it is worse at the end of the 12 month. They will give you around 3 cents, but they have already made some money (they charge your) through NBCs when you push it to the grid. so the net is even much less, like I said $0.008 kWh, which is negligible. Cust Svc once told me normally...

I figured out those charges that I was trying to understand. It from the same document, but the multiplier doesn't include the NBC, so the final rate is lesser. But it still works out the same, because they split the different through NBC and for relevant period. Working through my...

I called SCE to find out for TOUD-4-9PM, where did they come up with Energy-Summer On & Off Peak charges. I showed them the document where I was able to see delivery charges, but they are no close to what they charge. They charge less, I was told then I should be happy that I am being charged...

Thanks. That helped. NBC containing only the CTC, NDC, PPC were: PPPC = +$0.01904 NDC = -$.00056 CTC = -.00002 ------------------ = $0.01846 DWR Bond, I already had it $0.0058 so that was a separate line item.

I did, and preemptively before getting PTO. You need to 1st setup your current plan billing system to come up usage, rate, and totals. Then you use the usage you get from Tesla App. BTW, it will only help those who have Tesla Solar + Powerwall, because the app give much more info, while just...

I got my 1st bill which by error was based on TOUD-4-9PM plan. So I am trying to steady how they got the charges. I got moved from Tiered plan. I updated by Tiered & TOU rates based on the schedules that SCE publishes. Latest one that I found was "Effective June 1, 2021", and prior to that...

For all those who are doing comparison, I downloaded hourly data from SCE for almost 2 years. Massaged to correctly format to date/time stamps, etc. removed some unwanted rows to basically make it a clean look. Ended up writing a macro to remove and format. Once done, I then used SQL Server...

Southern California ... 8.16 kW panels. Although I just started, within last 15 days, max I had was 47.8, that about what you are getting in Florida. Date Home Solar 2/19/2021 22.0 40.6 2/20/2021 31.1 42.8 2/21/2021 33.4 42.9 2/22/2021 22.5 30.5 2/23/2021 25.9 42.6 2/24/2021 21.7...

I realized that if you scroll down a bit it will provide you To PW and under Grid, To Grid as well. So I should be able to validate those numbers also. Question: if you push more than you draw, does SCE or PG&E complain to you for the month end total? I have SCE. Currently I am at 100% self...

Thank you. All great answers. Both "gpez" and "power.saver" gave yields same answer. As "wjgjr" indicated, these are good approximations as they are close, so don't know which is really accurate, but since Tesla is recording every 5 minutes in the downloaded data, I would assume it is more...

I will go back and try that. Funny you mentioned periods in an hour. So I remember taking the sum and dividing with what solar would give and the values were always around 12, like 12.2, 12.3, 12.1, 11.9 and I wondered the whole number factor was around 12, but couldn’t explain why? It makes...

I did a exactly that for each 5 min data point and multiplied with 5/60 yields. I did that for smaller data point like from PW. i am now going to do what you are referring to, i.e. in excel create extra column and apply the math and then sum it. What I did was write up the formula to do match...

Do this, from your app (see attached screenshot), do a download, I generally use Excel to open it as csv file. You will get header showing (kW) with some like 285 rows. Total the column will give you a sum of data points. Each data point increments in 5 min time.

I agree, in THE App it has kW spikes of power, and above the graphs it tallies that into one single data kWh. So in essence, it has taken into sum of these kW of power drawn in a time duration and multiplied against the time yielding kWh. I want to compare previous days final app data against...

Correct. So in the download it has entries every 5 minutes. The sum of all these entries is 317.90 kW, and the total time span is 24 hours. The header row says kW.

I am really having a hard time understanding how they come up with large kW. When you multiply with total time (h), it is hugely large kWh value. Let alone the total kW to begin with is larger than kWh reported by the app. I need to understand their logic so I can pull and process it for...

@Laketime, see Post #8, I took the panel off and took few pics. Also, Level 1 said even though you are generating solar energy, he is not seeing that either, also points to meter reading probably due to CT. But based on Tesla App logs, it does not show Solar production, whereas in fact there...

@jjrandorin, thank you so much for the phone number. I called Tesla with phone number listed for scheduling email, and they said Support line is closed, will open on Monday. Obviously, a wrong support number. The number you provided worked. I called 877-961-7652 and in few seconds, Tier 1...

Thanks. I’ll be calling them tomorrow morning. I have sent a text message to my Tesla project person and an email to who advised me of my install appointment.

I took pic of the Backup Gateway 2 wiring in case someone can spot some irregularity.

I went back, while it is sunny at 2:15 PM, Solar stopped producing and I am pulling from grid. I can’t go to reconfigure because I only knew is when you click on the yellow exclamation icon, it would prompt asking to reconfigure. This is what I see now

Since on the day of Solar & Powerwall install, due to high winds, they installed 2 PWs. Two days later Solar was installed. Solar is working and any excess is being sent to grid. Still pending City inspection and Southern California Edison PTO. Currently my 2 PWs are stuck on Standby. Batter...
