Netzero for Tesla 4+

Really great app, the automatic update for half hourly rates like agile octopus is a game changer makes it a lot more usable than having to update manually. All the other features are also brilliant.

One thing that would be incredibly useful would be the ability to override the buy and sell prices with the users choice when the automatic update function is enabled. That would allow you to control when the power wall charges overnight as I often find that it’s charged fully overnight on say 18p low rate but I know that the next day will be sunny and my solar array will fully charge it, so I’ve paid for 18p electric overnight that I could have had from my array that only pays 15p on export. It would also allow the option to partly charge the powerwall enough to get it though the night then the array would top it up during the day. This would allow you to cherry pick the lowest prices and only take what you need.

Thanks for the review! The Automation feature in Netzero can give you a bit more control over when Powerwall charges, but we’ll consider tariff tweaks too.

This app is good for viewing your Tesla Powerwall data, great for viewing detailed info about your Powerwall and has an absolutely killer feature on top of that. The ability to automatically sync dynamic pricing from Octopus energy tariffs into the Tesla app. I had been doing this manually every day when the new prices are released. This does it automatically. It’s incredible and enables you to save loads of money on electricity but using it at cheap times, on a tariff that’s way cheaper than fixed tariffs. This is a totally unique feature, I’ve not found anything else that does this. As if that wasn’t brilliant enough, I emailed the developer to ask if he could add an extra export tariff to match what I use, so I could access the right prices. Not only did I get I really quick reply, he agreed to add it and then did so within a day or so. Incredible service.

Thanks for the review, and feel free to send more suggestions!

Since taking the plunge and investing in solar panels and a Tesla powerwall 2, I have moved over to Octopus. I had been eyeing up octopus agile as an alternative to flux import and export tariffs, but knew that it would be impractical to key in the daily data needed. I found an advert for Netzero on Redit, and decided to give it a go. It is amazing! All the work taken out of entering in the daily prices of agile. The app also allows you to select the export rate you may be using ( in my case fixed export). I only now need to key in when I want my Prius plug in to granny charge which I do via a home control Wi-Fi plug. We are also going to invest in Air sourced heat pump, and not only will we save money in the very long term, but have a good feeling about our contribution to the planet.
Many thanks to the talented developer. You deserve recognition for such a helpful, innovative product.

Thanks for the review!
