| Abstract | Occupants of dwellings with photovoltaic (PV) systems can often benefit financially by time-shifting their use of electricity in relation to the times when the PV is generating. This financial benefit is owing to differences between the import and export prices, which in some cases can be a factor of four or more. Quantifying the exact financial benefit in terms of the dwelling's effective electricity prices is, however, not trivial; it depends on the physical meter arrangement, the dwelling's electricity tariffs (including any feed-in-tariff), the instantaneous levels of PV generation and household demand. This study reviews typical metering and tariff configurations for the UK, and Germany, and systematically considers how the effective price may be calculated. This study reviews and expands upon general advice for occupants aiming to reduce electricity bills: demand should be kept below generation; external irradiance is a useful proxy for determining effective electricity prices. Furthermore, designers of feed-in tariffs should consider that focusing on generation payments encourages consumption typically around mid-day, which may be counterproductive from a grid-balancing and environmental perspective. Conversely, a focus on export payments discourages mid-day consumption but may increase the risk of over-voltages in local networks. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
