Still pulling from grid/feeding into grid, despite batteries full
In this instance I am charged money for illegally feeding power back - energy is being wasted. On the other hand, if I put the grid set-point to something like 300w, then power is being pulled from the grid despite plenty of power being available from PV. It should not be necessary to pull power from the grid.

The grid setpoint is where you can control the level of flow in or out of the grid to some extent and the ESS agent tries to keep this at 0W if configured so. In your case setting it to e.g. 100W means the system will always consume 100W from the grid should reduce the chance of feed-in happening. Also ensure feed-in in disabled.

Is it possible to charge and discharge a battery only to the grid?
If we put energy to the grid, use the superfluous energy to charge the battery and if energy is drawn from the grid to get the energy back out of the battery into the housegrid. Ideally to get a net zero energy consumption from the grid. Without change stuff on the solar install which feeds energy directly into the home grid.

6 Frequently Asked Questions about “How to feed back battery discharge into the grid”
When does a battery discharge?
The battery will only normally discharge when the energy meter senses power coming from the grid (and there is charge available in the battery). In the normal operation of electrical appliances, they will be switched on and off by the end user, or in the case of heating and cooling, a thermostat will control loads on and off.
Can a hybrid inverter dump energy to the grid?
Most hybrid inverters are not designed to dump energy to the grid. However, you can fool a hybrid by reversing the CT clamp or modifying the modbus responses from an energy meter. Be careful how much to send back, Octopus aren't stupid and you should already have a specific DNO export ceiling. Can I ask why you would want to do that?
Do inverters feed AC back into the grid?
This increase causes some other consumers to use a bit more power, and it also causes the generators to back off a bit. Inverters do feed AC back into the grid. the utility company knows that this happens and prepares for it each day when the sun comes up by backing off other generators gradually.
When does a solar battery charge & discharge?
The battery will only* charge when the solar is producing more energy than the loads are consuming. The battery will only* discharge when the loads are consuming from the grid. When the battery charge falls below the minimum allowable SOC set by the BMS, the battery will be force charged from the grid until the SOC reaches the minimum.
What happens if a home runs off a battery?
If that's more than the home is using, the excess will go out to the grid. If it's less than the home is using, then the home will be running off a mixture of generated and grid power. If you have a battery, you need a more clever inverter. It will try to power the home if it can, putting any spare power into the battery.
What happens if I don't have a battery in my inverter?
If you don't have a battery in the system, the inverter will always generate as much as it can. If that's more than the home is using, the excess will go out to the grid. If it's less than the home is using, then the home will be running off a mixture of generated and grid power. If you have a battery, you need a more clever inverter.
