![]() If there is a concern about the amount of electricity available then why on earth have we not mandated that every new build is fitted with solar panels? I accept solar is not much use in the dark but if people think they can consume electric for "free" then the dishwasher, hot water and washing machine for example will be set go on during the day and not in the evening when one gets home. Some may do this already, others may not.
I suspect the load on the grid goes up during the advert time on TV and end of a program as well as after the football match mentioned macafee2 Last edited by macafee2; 6th May 2022 at 04:49.. |

![]() Most folk,, me included, tend to charge overnight as opposed to during the day, evening or morning.
We would only charge it at peak times in an emergency |
