How to Set Up Time of Use on Your GoodWe System

Many energy retailers charge different rates depending on the time of day. Time of Use (TOU) settings let your GoodWe inverter and battery work to that schedule: charging the battery from solar or cheap off-peak power, and using stored energy during expensive peak periods. The video below walks through configuring TOU in the GoodWe SEMS app step by step.

Why Configure Time of Use?

Getting your TOU settings right can make a real difference to how much you save with a battery.

Lower Your Bills

Avoid buying power at peak rates by using stored solar or off-peak energy when prices are highest.

Smarter Charging

Tell your battery when to charge and discharge so it always has stored energy ready for the expensive periods.

Full Control

Manage everything from the GoodWe SEMS app and adjust your schedule any time your tariff changes.
