Is DESS Green Mode on 3.70 ~27 broken?

Hi!

It seems that DESS Green mode is broken in 3.70 ~27 - the system behaves as its running in Trade Mode. Yesterday (22/8) Look at times around 19-22 in the evening and 07 in the morning. PV goes into Grid even though the battery is nowhere near full.

at 12-16 I’ve switched off DESS to put some charge in the the battery when the price was at its lowest since the PV prediction missed a lot yesterday. Currently switched off the DESS for the moment.

Hi,

the venus version / local implementation has no impact on the scheduling.
In Green-Mode, DESS is just selling, what it “thinks” is not required during night according to consumption forecast.

So, without a bat2grid restriction and a low estimated consumption during night, manually charging up your battery
seems unideal, as DESS will consider that “surplus” as abundant energy and sell it again.

If you don’t want apparent surplus energy to be sold, you should set up a battery2grid restriction, then the scheduler will obey that.
