    Storage operation blocking times

    To optimize the use of stored electricity and grid electricity, you have the option of setting your battery storage system (Battery flex) to standby mode in the SOLARWATT Manager portal. This means that you can draw electricity from the public grid at times of low tariff (low costs for electricity purchase) and save your stored electricity for times of high tariff (high costs for electricity purchase).

    In terms of the service life of your battery storage system, the standby mode is limited to 3 hours.
