    When the sun was out it was quite strong but also some very dark spells. Third best day of the month in the end and third day "above the line" too at 0.85 Os.

    Almost an O yesterday. Ok 0.878, but anything over 0.5 rounds up to one, doesn't it? :o

    Gen sitting at a predicted 99% of target, so better than the last 2 months. After today the weather forecast is sunny for 8 days, with zero precipitation ....... so better get the waterproofs out.

    Mart.
    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.
