- New export more solar feature by @springfall2008 in #4117
switch.predbat_export_more_solar When turned On, late in the planning stage Predbat will try enabling Freeze Export on every otherwise Idle slot that has predicted solar generation. With Freeze Export the battery is not charged from the surplus solar, so that solar is exported to the grid instead.
This alternative plan is only kept if it does not increase the overall plan metric by more than input_number.predbat_export_more_solar_threshold (expert mode, default 1p), otherwise the original plan is restored. This lets you favour exporting solar over storing it when doing so is roughly cost-neutral. The feature relies on switch.predbat_set_export_freeze being enabled (and your inverter supporting export/discharge freeze); it is an optimiser-only setting and uses the existing Freeze Export execution behaviour.
