After 3 Months With Amber
I've been with amber for almost three months and am totally satisfied with my earnings from the market. I choose to manually control my battery and when I will sell and send power to the grid. You may choose the automatic system that takes care of the selling of your stored energy, but that is not for me. My feeling is that automation is most suited for installation that are larger then mine (16kWh battery system), but that is just a gut feeling. Overall I am hundreds of dollars ahead from the feed in tariffs I've earned compared to the miserable 5 cents a kWh Origin was paying me and in fact I've earned more in 3 months that Origin would pay me in 9. Being on Amber requires a bit of work with an eye on the market prices that show in their App and if working manually, like I am, you need to pay attention to the wholesale market as it can be very lucrative during spikes.
