Well on the down side this month is below PVGIS for me (probably by about 20kwh by the end of the day) but on the plus side my system anniversary is also today and my annual production is up by 10% on what PVGIS predicted so a double edged day really:beer:
I am currently really happy with my investment in Solar PV (Just wish I'd done it sooner:D).0 -

421kWh for June against target of 457kWh.
But only 66kWh taken from grid in June.

Still (technically) generating - but only at 1W. I guess I can use present reading for end of month
404W against PVGIS forecast of 459 means I'm 12% down. But taken together, a great May & poor June mean that actual for the 2 months is close to forecast.
Anything can happen in June ! June 2012 was 14% down, June 2015 was 23% up.NE Derbyshire.4kWp S Facing 17.5deg slope (dormer roof).24kWh of Pylontech batteries with Lux controller BEV : Hyundai Ioniq50 -
