  1. You will be getting two payments. The Feed in Tarrif based on your installation date and an export rate based on a supposition that you are exporting 50% of the kWh generated. In my case as I only got in on the last day of the feed in Tarrif, I get .29p per kWh generated and 4p for 50% of kWh generated as an export Tarrif. 😡 https://www.energy-stats.uk/octopus-agile-outgoing-export/
  2. Great information. Thanks for the tip off, I have an Octopus account on one of my rental properties. 👍
  3. Thanks for the warm welcome. Yes super insulated is a bit ott. But backing up the cavity wall insulation with 80mm kingspan was all I could afford! If I could plaster a wall I could have had 125mm. 🤭 I'll get some photos up of projects to date I try to keep a photographic record of everything. Mike
  4. Hello Everyone, My name is Mike and I'm supposed to be retired. However, that soon got boring so I bought a house and refurbished it, new kitchen, fitted bedrooms, underfloor heating etc then sold it and bought a small holding on the edge of Dartmoor national park that was pretty derelict with the exception of the house. I'm a reasonably competent DIY type of guy and will turn my hand to most things. Projects completed to date are numerous, but the highlights are:- Heat Recovery and Ventilation system fitted to my bungalow. Now I have two wood burners heating the whole house. LPG usage has fallen by 66% and the gas boiler now only occasionally heats the water. Fitted PV and use excess power generated to heat the water (I hate exporting KWh at 4.3p and buying it at 35p!) Super insulated the bungalow, with 80mm Kingspan on the inside of all external walls and the flat roof ceiling and 300mm in the loft. 175 meters of trenching to link all outbuildings with the house and laying water, armoured cable (10mm) and a ground source heat loop (for future use). Future projects include getting off grid for electricity and water, building a timber and glass conservatory and using the stream that runs the length of the property for a micro hydro system. A post about this will follow. Mike
