When will the sun finally shine again?

Since my storage unit was replaced with the SENEC P4, there have been no more "good" sunny days, so I couldn't really judge how the new storage unit would perform. On December 27, the time had finally come - there was enough sun to fully charge the 4 installed cells.

Over the course of the day, 16.9 kWh went into the storage system and gradually came out again over 6 hours from around 3 pm. Of course, this reduces the costs enormously, but there was still no real grid feed-in and it should of course look much better when the sun is in the sky for longer.

I've also started using Home Assistant to find out what the biggest consumers are. It's no surprise that the geothermal heat pump draws a lot, especially in winter. My network cabinet is also doing "very well". The dryer, washing machine, coffee machine, etc. are also always doing well. I work here with Shelly Plug S plugs for power consumption measurement and the HACS AddOn PowerCalc. How all this works, including measuring the consumption of the heat pump, will be explained in subsequent articles.
