Interesting to see it really seems like everyone across the board used less and less energy.

What did you all change? Any specific tools or tricks?

Personally I didn’t even change my heating level but just used the timers a lot more with sharper cutoffs. And I did use smart plugs between my media appliances and my pc to make sure they are off when I leave the house, as well as being less casual about turning off the lights in rooms that I’m not in. Compared to 2019 (so before more WFH) that’s like a 20% savings on gas, and 15% on electricity for me.

Nice, was that 1100 per month or per year because that’s insanely high per month.

1100 per month. To be honest we were invited to pay that insane amount by Luminus but never agreed to. We then switched to Engie. Current monthly invoice is 300, since it’s the first year with PV I don’t know what to expect. My elec and gas consumption are at zero for a few week but they still show some daily amount in the application. What is also insane is the price they buy the kWh (~10 cent) from the PV vs the price we buy the kWh (~ 40 cent?)
