Hello,
I've had my 6.4kwh solar pv and 16kwh battery back up/critical loads installed over a year ago, I noticed last month my settlement bill was $1000.
I checked electricity bill and the net generation seemed unusually low. SCE also said my total consumption for 2023 was 3221kwh. I also checked my SMA sunny portal and the net generation was much higher. Is my battery discharge and direct consumption being metered? How do I fix this?
Here's a list of my system:
(16) Hanwah Q Cells Q Peak Duo BLK ML-G10+ 400
SMA SB6.0-1SP-US-41 Inverter
SMA SBS-ABU-200-US-10 Automatic Backup Unit Inverter
Wattnode Modbus RTU 0
LG Chem Resu 16H Battery
New Battery Backup Panel with 3 breakers relocated from main house panel.
Existing Subpanel also connected to battery backup.
Attached is a screenshot of my SMA Sunny Portal energy balance:
Consumption
Total 3219.75 kwh
external energy supply 121.25 kwh
battery discharge 1732.02 kwh
direct consumption 1366.48 kwh
Generation
Total 8402.74 kwh
direct consumption 1366.48 kwh
battery charging 2202.24 kwh
grid feed-in 4834.03 kwh
