11 PV Surplus Charging / Load Balancing Home screen (go-e Charger) After switching from your go-e Controller to the go-e Charger, you will be taken to its home screen with the "Charger" view. Remember these mode buttons (Eco, Daily Trip), which you will need to tap later if you want to activate PV surplus charging.
Page 43
To do this, select the "Eco" tab in the menu bar below and then "PV surplus". If you have an electricity provider with flexible electricity prices that is listed in the go-e app, you can combine PV surplus charging with the corresponding electricity tariff.
Page 44
You can also combine PV Surplus charging with the Daily Trip mode. If you want to be sure that the go-e Charger will charge your EV with a certain amount of energy until the morning and you want to use PV electricity or cheap grid electricity from an electricity provider with fle- xible tariffs, then you should activate the "Daily...

Charger simply charges when there is sur- plus PV power available - possibly not at all. In Next Trip mode, the go-e Charger tries to wait as long as possible for surplus power, but then charges power from the grid as late as possible to reach your desired amount of energy.

"Maximum grid current" line. This is the maximum current in amperes that your house can draw from the grid. The go-e Controller will ensure that this value is never exceeded when charging your electric car in combination with the power demand of your other consumers.
