One thing I don't see people talking about relates to Gas.

After a few months on GloBird for solar, I decided to switch my Gas account from AGL to GloBird. My gas bill isn't very large, typically around $40 a month for my hot water system, but on GloBird the rates are cheaper. However the big benefit is that I can offset my monthly Solar credits to cover my Gas usage/supply charges.

Net result, my monthly electricity usage is free, my gas is now free, and I can still manage a small monthly credit via my exports.

Something to consider if you have both Solar and Gas. I don't believe FlowPower offers Gas.

If you've found this helpful, below is my referral link, where you can get $50 credit to sign up, and offset it against future usage.

Just sharing my current Home Assistant dashboard to track what's happening with my Solar/Battery set up. Keen for any feedback as I'm still quite new at this. There are 2 Solar Export charts at the bottom - I'm still undecided which one to keep, but these track how much I export from 4-9pm which is the feed-in window for GlowBird.

Is there anything else I should display that would be good to see/know at a glance?
