Not directly related to solar power generation but related to energy policy generally: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-12-05/electricity-smart-meters-offer-hope-for-reliable-clean-energy/11766766

Is this “PeakSmart” technology smart enough to deal with the complications of a household that has panels or panels and a battery - so that the energy flows are more complicated than simply consumption from the grid? Would it still be appropriate for the power company to turn your air-co down if you are net not consuming from the grid? As long as participation in this remains voluntary, I suppose it doesn’t matter how it interacts with household generation.
