⚡ Tips to Maximise the Value of Your Neovolt Battery
Tip 1: Use an EV Energy Plan to Charge at Low Rates
Most electricity retailers offer EV plans that provide ultra-low off-peak rates, such as 8c/kWh between 11:00 PM and 7:00 AM.
You can configure your Neovolt battery to charge during these hours and power your home throughout the day, maximising savings.
