Through the ennexOS monitoring portal, you can now charge your SMA battery whenever you want. This allows you to take advantage of low electricity prices at night, for example: charge when it's cheap and consume power when it's convenient for you.
(Until recently, this was possible on the classic Sunny Portal, but not on the newer ennexOS. Now that it is possible, there's no reason not to migrate your system from the old portal to the new one if you're still using the old one. Click here to see how.)

[description] => <p>Now you've set everything. The battery will start charging at the desired time and at the set power. If solar power is available at that time, it will be used for charging. If not, grid power will be used to charge the battery. Charging stops when the time period ends or when the battery is 100% full. You can change the setting at any time by following the same steps.</p>
