Weirdly in the UK it seems to be best to charge battery overnight from the grid and sell back during the day alongside any solar generated.

That appears to be true in places in the US that have time-of-use rates. Sadly where I live, there are no time-of-use rates for residential customers, otherwise I would absolutely do this.

Wouldn’t it be better to fill any shortfall from solar before selling back to the grid?
