78% of battery charging from solar
In winter months, grid charging tops up your battery. With the right energy plan, you can charge during off-peak periods at very low rates - or even free.
Monthly averages based on typical weather. Cloudy days and seasonal variation mean some days will need grid top-up to fully charge your battery. Assumes ~35% of daily usage (5 kWh) during solar hours.
