VRM Beta - Dynamic ESS - Nothing for UK?

Hi, just looking at the VRM beta and I see the new tab for ESS. But I noticed there is nothing listed for the UK (not even selectable) is there a reason for this?

Dynamic pricing for the UK is not provided by Entsoe right now. And that is what is being used as source for the pricing information.

That being said, you might be able to use the "fixed prices" and different prices for the weekend and weekdays.

Question:


Are the Baltic states in the list already which use the Energy Bourse Nordpol?


i have seen in the App of Eesti Energia, that on friday the energy price was UNDER 0,30¢/kWh...


18kWh and not even earned 19¢


Hence my customer could have charged the batteries and sold it late for uo to 0,6€/kWh...

I which I knew Victron doesn’t support uk with Dynamic ESS before I wasted a day upgrading the Venus OS from V2.89 to V3.30, and then to a beta version V3.40xxx…….. the manual just said you needed an ess system, not use a generator outside of power outages and running Venus os V3.30 or nearer. Nothing about having to be in a set country!!!!!!

And the half hour prices are available in API, for my energy provider (Octopus) if your a partner of them or a customer. See link below.
