PV sun up pre-charging about pv_opt HOT 3 CLOSED

Without your log files I can't see exactly what it is calculating but my guess is that the charge to 26% is enough to get you through to when the solar kicks in. If you want to have a bit more slack in the system I would suggest using a lower confidence level for the solar forecast so it doesn't expect so much sun on variable days. I normally run mine at 30% because the downside of too little is worse that the impact of too much

It isn't the forecast thats not working as it's pretty good currently so 50% seems ok and dropping to 30% confidence wasn't producing the charge needed as the last few days PV output have been high anyway (nice position to be in I know!). Increasing the consumption artificially isn't great either, and would have to be so large currently as I've getting great PV output.

It's the overlap where the battery has depleted overnight and the PV output hasn't started. Together with the Agile slots pre-dawn being cheaper than morning peak (and before sufficient PV output), think there's scope for further optimisation. I've attempted to shape the consumption accordingly this evening but it doesn't seem to force a small charge yet, maybe I need to tweak it further.

I've attached logs to help. My consumption is more than covered with the PV forecast, just not for the 24 hour period as my battery storage isn't sufficient. If there's a configuration parameter option to use in conjunction with "Use Solar", something like "Use PV window" option, the PV_Opt could then calculate the charging plan with and without the PV window option.

Thanks.

This is the charge plan with 30% forecast. Too much charge to get over the morning OE 'peak' before PV output starts.
Perhaps this is due to the shaping of the consumption profile? Anyway to toggle this as its currently an AppDeamon restart?
