"Our solar power feeds into our local grid for our neighbours to use. We sell the electricity at market rates - which change every 30 minutes. This made us £13."

Some more details on this would be interesting. We're currently with Octopus and get just 15p/kWh when we sell back to the grid, but have to pay 25p/kWh when we buy from the grid.

What kind of rates (average?) are you getting, and who's your supplier?

SDGE charges $0.50/kWh and gives you $0.05/kWh in return
