Your dashboard shows how much you've saved with your solar panels, and if you have one, your battery, compared to a home without them. Using your actual energy prices together with your energy usage, we translate this into an amount saved.
Saved with Solar panels
This is how much money your solar panels have saved you. We compare two scenarios for the same period: what you would have paid if all your electricity came from the grid, versus what you actually paid using power from your panels first. Any extra solar power you didn't use gets exported and credited at the export rate. The difference between these two amounts is what you've saved with solar panels.
Saved with Battery
This only appears if your site has a battery installed and shows the extra money your battery has saved you, on top of your solar savings. Without a battery, any solar power you don't use right away is exported immediately. With a battery, that surplus is stored and used later, for example in the evening, instead of buying electricity from the grid at that time. What you've saved with your battery is the difference between what you would have paid with just solar panels and what you actually paid with the battery included.
These figures are estimates, not exact measurements. They're calculated by comparing your actual energy use against a hypothetical "no solar, no battery" scenario, using the energy prices that applied at the time. They don't account for every real-world factor, such as changes to your contract, pricing plan, or how you'd have used electricity differently without solar or a battery, so they should be treated as a helpful guide to the value your system provides rather than a precise financial figure.
