    Wednesday the ESE snuck over the 25MWh mark (WNW at 10.5MWh), PV the little engine that can, and keeps on 'canning'?
    Nearly two weeks in and a week shy of Spring, currently predicting 99% for March. That'll do.
    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.
