    Been a slippy month here, with my month end prediction sliding ever downward. Now at 93%. Meh!

    I'm getting 2 to 3 Os at best, time for the wooden spoon again?

    Mart.
    Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 28kWh battery storage. Two A2A units for cleaner heating. Two BEV's for cleaner driving.

    For general PV advice please see the PV FAQ thread on the Green & Ethical Board.

    2.5 kWp PV system, SSW facing, 45 Deg Roof. ABB Inverter, Monitor: 'Wattson'.
    Reg. for FIT Nov 2011. "It's not what you generate; it's how you use it that matters". One very clean Vauxhall Diesel Sri, £30.00 Road Tax: B)

    Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).

    3.0 O's yesterday.

    Only 1.1 O's today. A new record for my worst day ever, although I started in April so I only have summer readings so far. At least the panels got a wash.
