Why is my solar regulator not feeding my battery

Hi all.


Right now then sun is shining and my MPPT is saying 22 V from my solar panel, my smart shunt is saying I am consuming ~4A. Voltage is 12,92, state of charge 98%. Now I am wondering why my MPPT isn't feeding my battery - it says 0W? I am below 13V and less than 100% state of charge. Why waste that solar energy?

@scaarup Check your setting on your smart shunt. You have set your battery capacity to 300 but the charged voltage is set to 0.0v.
