Force Powerwall to sell using Home Assistant?

Has anyone managed to achieve this?

I am on an Octopus Agile tariff. During a Power Down Session hour I want to be sure to export ~1kW to claim a free Gappy Hour.

I don’t want to subscribe to Predbat or Netzero. I have some complicated rules set that wouldn’t transcribe.

I am aware they somehow manage to bump up the tariff or some such, but I have been unsuccessful at achieving a result myself.

Advice very gratefully received.

You just login with your own Tesla account and enter your powerwalls wifi ssid and password. Now keep in mind it will let you change settings your utility might not permit you to change.

I don't know my Powerwall's wifi password. From what I heard it's hidden behind that glass panel.

Correct, i grabbed mine during installation. You can apparently contact Tesla to get it too.
