    11,800 /3,780 >>> 3.12 Os.

    Despite results nearer to the bottom end of our league table, I will probably tomorrow meet my PVGIS monthly target for the first time.

    9th Hawaii so far this month (and 3 near misses) 5.975 o's today.
    9.5 kWh over pvgis for the month.

    Very mixed forecast for the last week of the month, so the good times might not continue. Happy with what I've got so far.

    Not been here to read generation metre over the past 4 days!!! Total calculations for the 4 days are:-


    3 x Hawaii's and a Typhoooo + 0.53 = 18.53 O's (bit of fun type calculation cos weather was not very good today)


    Now 14.89 kWh over target for the month


    Bestest April for us ever!!!!!!!!!! Good weather this April + chimney removal!!!!!!!

    With your sunny disposition you almost brought us a Wink on Thursday with 3.84 Os. But without it on Friday, the weather quickly dropped off and we only got a rather dull 1.6 O's.

    (But we made up for it by throwing all the Chinese leftovers into a frying pan, and pigging out ... again!) :o

    Mart (at the unofficial Cardiff rescue centre for stray cats and lost PV'ers).
    Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 20kWh 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.
