    3.70 Os but quite a nice curve for the time of year. Inevitable tree shading in the morning but pretty good afternoon.

    Wattson is great for presentation but far out on accuracy. Now I can measure actual export, I can see the difference. I'm exporting less that 20% of solar production.

    If most people here are consistently over-performing on PVGIS, is the PVGIS hurdle set far too low?

    I seem to be in the minority who is just about meeting PVGIS.

    Just pick the lowest one, don't beat yourself up....;)

    My Wattson figures are not too far out; looking at yours today , between 12:00 and 15:00 you used 7.99 Kw and imported 0.19 Kw. What does that work out at?

    Have just come back from 10 days away in the Sun and for once in my life I can say I have had too much of it! Very little cloud and when it did come around it was at night! Great for panels! Went to Hurgarda in Egypt, Too Hot!!!!!!! most days 40 plus!

    Nice to see that my panels kept up while I was away. Ended the month at 109% of PVGIS
