I have searched for this elsewhere, but cannot find an answer. I have a PV system installed and a power wall on order.
I read on a different forum that the power wall would take all available surplus power until it was at 100%. Is there anyway that I can set or program it give priority to charging the car and then only charging the powerwall after the car is full unplugged?
The reason wanting to do this is reduce what we export to grid. In the summer here is gets light at 5:00 am and the sun is well and truly up by 6:00 am (on days that it is sunny that is). At around 9:00 my wife takes the car out. I can see a situation where the sun comes up, charges the powerwall, and then the rest of the morning we export to the grid as the gone is gone and there is nothing else to charge. It would be better to charge the car until it goes out and then charge the powerwall after.
Most of our panels are orientated to the South East, so morning is our peak charging time.
