What actually matters in Caroline Springs
Your electricity bill names your distributor, and the rules differ. On Powercor, your installer lodges a pre-approval before you sign, and the export limit that comes back can vary from street to street. If it comes back at 0 kW, Powercor offers some customers a flexible exports connection instead. On Jemena, the basic connection caps exports at 5 kVA on single phase.
Either way the shape of the day is the same: midday power is plentiful and cheap, evening power is scarce and dear. What decides a good design here is your household, meaning when you cook, when the cooling runs, whether someone is home during the day and whether there is an electric car in the garage.
Shifting the dishwasher, washing machine or car charging into the 11am to 4pm window is the cheapest improvement you can make, and it costs nothing. A battery then carries the house through the evening.
