You need to be a bit careful when looking at those 30min prices on the Nation Grid website, although they are useful. This isn't even the wholesale price that Octopus pays for the electricity they se... | ||

I have a Midea heat pump (nominal 14kW but the 12, 14 and 16kW ones are all the same inside, output is controlled by simple dip switches) and so may (or may not!) be able to help. I agree, with DHW a... | ||

RE: Ecodan & MelCloud scheduling
