Feb scores on the doors...
Feb 2015 154/169.327 = 109.95% of target
Feb 2016 154/207.493 = 134.74% of target.
If I add up the targets for Dec, Jan and Feb, I get 356.8
If I add up the achieved totals for the same period, I get 356.871, so Febs gen leaves me with a surplus of 0.071kWh to offset against Nov. 2015
