    Going down, 0.035 O today and what must be an all time low compared to pvgis of 40%.
    As per 2020 I was hoping the announcement of another lockdown would bring the sunshine out again but it seems nobody told the sun. :)
    Seems everyone needs at least a Months Notice these days of a change of plan: otherwise it's called a U turn   
    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).
