I heard from a mutual acquaintance of ours that you used to live in the street where I'm moving to (up in Heldervue, named after an exotic wildflower) 🙂 COCT pays for the prepaid meter if you have no plans to feed in. The prepaid meter is unidirectional and depending on which one they give you it will either trip or happily charge you for any power you may accidentally feed in. Bidirectional meters are only required if you want to make use of the SSEG feed in tariffs. In that case you pay for the meter and installation plus a network fee. You do not get to own the meter - you just pay for it. It's probably intended to discourage ordinary homes from wanting to feed in as it makes it effectively impossible to break even financially. I believe COCT has mostly succeeded with this. It's only idiots like me that go ahead regardless. As for the street - Yup. At the bottom next to the park. No.5. Was a good house and nice view on the ocean. Much further away from the sea now but still have a view of it. Edited November 22, 20196 yr by The Bulldog
