With the end of gross feedin tariffs, - you can no longer treat the grid as a 100% efficient battery, so those with solar PV systems need to be smarter about their energy generation & usage to minimise their energy costs .

This talk will cover my setup at home:
- Acquiring Net consumption/generation data using a modbus enabled power meter
- Logging data via Open Energy Monitor
- Micromanaging battery state-of-charge for Solax inverters
- Dynamically switching loads such as air conditioners, pool pumps etc using Home Assistant
- Dynamically diverting surplus energy to a Tesla EV

Next steps:
- Trading energy based on the National Energy Market spot price via Amber Electric

linux.conf.au is a conference about the Linux operating system, and all aspects of the thriving ecosystem of Free and Open Source Software that has grown up around it. Run since 1999, in a different Australian or New Zealand city each year, by a team of local volunteers, LCA invites more than 500 people to learn from the people who shape the future of Open Source.
