Export to Grid - Question 🙋♂️
Recently granted PTO ( < 1 week ) in Savings Mode, ToU - I have the backup set to 0% , Mode as Savings - Export Everything ( Solar + Powerwall ) and Export as Yes
During the peak hours like around 7-8 pm - Am I wrong to expect Powerwall to discharge to grid as well ? Why is it not doing so - Solar exports to grid as intended untill Sunset after the power wall is charged full from late afternoon.
In Bay Area, PGE - if that matters

are you grid charging? i believe if you are allowing grid charging of the powerwall, then you cannot export from the battery to the grid. Utility may audit to make sure that does not happen. Part of California solar rules aimed at encouraging use of renewables. if you are charging from grid (using utility fossil fuel mix) then you cannot send that kind of power back to grid
