Good day, 2.95 Os today. Not bad for late October.
Got to get another 50kWh in the next 19 days to achieve 4Mw for the year.4kWp, South facing, 16 x phono solar panels, Solis inverter, Lincolnshire.0 -
Just over an O each day for the last three days. Weather forecast predicted more sun, but not as good as expected up in the Welsh Valleys. Went Swansea way yesterday and it was brilliant sunshine !
However, should still hit PVGIS target for October in the next couple of days as only 5.6 kWh to go.0
