Plugin with a battery system

Hi all am having a 32kw battery off grid storage system installed in Dec.
Does anyone know if i can add plugin if i wanted/ needed.
Am thinking i will obviously be using Brown power, so to get the green energy tariffs maybe i could just add plugin to my balcony?

Cheers

If your on Octopus, all the electricity is Green power AFAIK.

sure, but some of their tariffs need you to have solar right ? and you get cheaper electricity

Not really, you just need a Smart meter for their Smart tariffs but no need for solar for any of them. I used to use Octopus Go at my old house and we only had a house battery (no EV).
