    What you could do, is pretend that you are on a smart plan for a month and now with the date ranges compare the 2 costs

    In the app, you can create a usage load profile from your HDF data, then tweak it if you think you can change when you use electricity (herself will not). Then add hot water heating, EV or a battery and solar. It will simulate a year and show comparisons for the different scenarios.

    It's fun to see when I start to build credit for winter, but also good to see what happens if I buy another battery, or more panels, or do batch cooking at the weekend and charge a large EV battery on Sunday...

    On my to-do list is to add dumping to the grid schedule, as this is a real earner for those that can. Garden is looking better, but still a bit to do there before I submerge myself in android again.
