Who's your electricity provider and what's your tariff?
@chandykris Exactly the same here. We now have 13.5kWh of storage and expect to be doing 2.5-3 cycles per day in the coldest depths of winter. In the milder weather I doubt we will be cycling the battery so hard, but will be topping up 3 times per day from the grid. I'm not overly concerned about the battery - it has an unlimited cycle warranty, it will only really be cycled hard for 8-12 weeks per year and we bought it to be used, not to hang on the wall looking pretty. Plus the more it's cycled, the quicker it pays for itself.
Samsung 12kW gen6 ASHP with 50L volumiser and all new large radiators. 7.2kWp solar (south facing), Tesla PW3 (13.5kW)
Solar generation completely offsets ASHP usage annually. We no longer burn ~1600L of kerosene annually.
