Electricity bill Aug, nice surprise

Post by cyprusmax47 »

I was very pleased when I received my electricity bill from EAC for June/July,= E 14,88 via email and I paid minutes later.

There were a lot of rumors that EAC's grid cannot cope with all the photo-voltaic installations, however that did not happen in my case.

I realized in springtime that the voltage to my house was sometimes more than 253 volt and my inverter switched off then, so I complained about it to EAC in order to reduce the voltage which is also bad for all the consumers in the house as they are designed for 240volt.

Obviously EAC adjusted the voltage a bit and on top of it I reduced the voltage by running 2 aircons all daytime

The result was that I produced much more electricity than I used and I delivered to the grid a lot of kWh's. which are been credited for later use.

So even with the heatwave we had recently and everybody else had his aircons running it is proved that the grid can cope with it thanks to so many new photo-voltaic installations on the island.
