First-month checklist for home batteries
A home battery can have a huge impact on your dynamic energy bill. The first month is mainly about finding the right charge and discharge strategy.
Step 1: connect and test the battery
- Check the “Home batteries and energy storage” category to see which models are supported.
- Confirm that current state of charge and charge/discharge flows are visible in Leafy Energy.
Step 2: pick a basic strategy
- Start with a simple profile such as “charge during the cheapest hours, discharge during the most expensive hours”.
- If you have solar panels, take your own production into account to avoid unnecessary cycling.
Step 3: fine-tune using charts
- After a few weeks, analyse how the battery reacts to your price and usage patterns.
- Adjust thresholds if the battery is used too frequently or barely used at all.
The first month is mostly observation: how does your battery behave in your specific household and dynamic price profile?
