The second half of February was really encouraging again in terms of photovoltaic performance.

The heat pump usually turns on at night and then runs until around 9 to 11 a.m., depending on the temperature. The past few days have been colder again, with consumption between 6 and 9 kWh.

Total electricity consumption in February was 901 kWh, which equals 32 kWh per day. This includes heating, hot water, and other electricity use (network cabinet, waterbed, etc.). Considering we had 1 1/2 weeks of extreme cold, I think that’s a good value. Currently, outdoor temperatures are dropping again, at 2°C (36°F).

We had an 11 kWh consumption yesterday, which is really impressive 😀. My wife hasn’t complained so far *phew, lucky me*.

The heating demand of the house is now only one-third of what it was before, with the heating curve adjusted from 28/21 to 26/20. I do not understand it, but I’m glad it is this way!

In February, we used 180m³ (about 6,350 ft³) of gas, but the heating was turned off for 3 days. The temperature was set to 24°C (75°F) and circulation was running continuously. Zaba would probably manage with less than 100m³ (around 3,530 ft³) of gas per month 😉 🙂

@Bookstar: compared to other heat pumps, your consumption is still quite high, isn’t it?

Well, not anymore 😀, it was too high before!

There is still a lot of room for improvement in self-consumption when I compare my numbers with an 8.68 kWp system to yours. In this case, the difference is not due to the battery.
