    Its a fantastic idea.

    Load your dishwasher, clothes washer, dryer and run it in the free hours.

    Set your hot water timer to run in the free hours.

    Get a battery and charge it during the free hours.

    Very simple way to use up some of that excess grid power, reduce peak load, and save yourself some coin at the same time.

      Heatpump hot water effectively becomes free as well. You just set it to warm during the free period. Which is another nail in natural gases coffin.
