一旦你的太阳能电池板成功安装在你的屋顶上,你的仪表将需要更新。这是为了确保你通过太阳能上网电价得到补偿。安装你的新电表有太阳能电池板意味着你现在可以把电力送回电网,并为你提供的电力而得到奖励。为了测量这个功率,你需要升级你的仪表。有时,太阳能电池板安装公司会为你安排,但并非总是如此。如果您还没有安装新的电表,请联系我们的太阳能新连接团队1800 680 430(周一至周五,上午8:30 -下午6点美国东部时间)。我什么时候能收到我的太阳能上网积分?只有在您的电表安装完毕,并且我们收到您的安装公司的相关文件后,您才能获得对电网供电的积分。如果你的太阳能电池板已经安装,但你没有收到积分,我们可能还在等待你的安装公司的文件。欲了解更多信息,请联系我们的太阳能新连接团队1800 680 430(美国东部时间周一至周五上午8:30 -下午6点)。 How much will I receive? The feed-in tariff rate you’ll be getting will differ from state to state and depend on which plan you’re on. You can find out more about our plans on our Solar and Renewables page. You’ll be able to see your tariff by viewing your contract in My Account. Tracking your solar power After you’ve got your meter set up, you’ll be able to see how much power your system is sending back to the grid through the AGL Energy app or My Account. It takes about 2 weeks to get this up and running on our end – so you may not be able to access this info immediately. While we can provide you with solar insights and statistics about usage, we’re unable to access information from your solar panels directly. Getting the most out of your solar system Now that you’ve taken the steps to get solar installed, you’re probably wondering how you can make the most out of it. Use your power: While your system will automatically sell excess power back to the grid through your solar feed-in tariff, it usually works out better to use your power. For appliances you’d normally run in the afternoon or evening, like a washing machine or dishwasher, run them during the day if you can. This way you’ll be using the power generated from your solar panels instead of sending it the grid and then buying back more power later. Of course, if you have a home battery system, you’ll be able to save the power for later use anyway. Stagger your consumption: Instead of putting on your washing machine, dishwasher and dryer, at the same time, stagger the cycles. Most modern appliances have timing functions so you’re able to set the dishwasher to begin when your washing machine has finished etc. This will minimise the power draw and enable you to use the power from your panels throughout the day instead of buying extra power from the grid when you run them at the same time. Keep track: Using a PV (photovoltaic) tracking app will allow you to stay on top of the performance of your panels throughout the day and compare against its history. Usually, the solar inverter brand or company will be able to recommend the best way to track activity. You’re also able to use the AGL Energy app and My Account to monitor any power that’s sent to the grid.
