Hello all, I just noticed that Dess starts selling one hour too late. Most expensive hours are 7 ubrilnb9 pm. But in stead of that it plans to start unloading at 8pm. Any idea why it’s behaving like this?
Mine DESS trades the correct way!
Look at the energy charts you are looking at the schedule ones, than the charts match!
Yes the charts match indeed. But why would it sell at lower prices then possible? The planning was incorrect.
The discharge didn’t start at 19:00 today?
The time scale of the usage graph is shifted 1h!
No, it didn’t start. At 19.15 I started it up myself. Then at 22.00 hrs it still wanted to discharge. So I had to switch off Dess again.
Strange, the time zone in Venus OS is correct?
Yes, it is.
Mine system trades correct based on known day ahead price.
So I still think it is some setting in your system, basically Dess makes the correct decisions.
I still trade at 1h periods (zonneplan), maybe there is a 15 minute issue?
No, it’s set at hourly prices.
You have it on trade or green mode?
Trade mode.
I have something in the back of my head, that for Green-Mode, there is a rule to not sell to grid in solar hours.
So, if that first evening hour still has solar above a certain threshold, selling will apparently start 1 hour late.
I will check with the scheduler team if that rule is still there, and why it is 
Aha. Wel, curious about that then. Curious anyway, about the parameters the system works with. Is that something we can look into?
@dognose tomorrow it will act the same, just as today. See attachment. For tomorrow, it plans to sell at 8pm. But highest prices are from 7pm untill 9 pm. Not 8 untill 10pm. Today it did the same.
What we do see, is in the line graph where you can see the planning also, it is correct. But at end it acts as in the graph that’s one hour later.
Switch to trade mode.
That’s not a solution.
You can check this way how green mode behaves.
Yes, that is currently by design in Greenmode.
I’ve forwarded this to the scheduler team already to review the purpose and/or duration of that “no selling during solar hours”-rule.
Ah. Typical. I would think the fact there is solar still expected has no influence on the decision when to sell.
Anyway I would appreciate it if you can let me know the outcome.
In winter, unless battery costs indeed works as you say, so then it will respect that (instead of selling for 5 cents!) trade mode definitly doesn’t give you the highest profit either.
In summer.. Maybe. But sofar I am not convinced either of the 2 modes are really 100 % good. And what about next year? When saldering stops?
I mean, look at the fact that in green mode, when there is still sun energy expected. Then, for some reason (designed like that!) the system decides to sell an hour later. And no. Your interpretation of green is, I think, wrong. It doesn’t sell to make space for sun production. It sells whatever can be missed. It works reasonable. If they, to start with, fix this hour thing.
