    Hit my October target for the first time this year. Indeed, exceeded it by 6% which will help compensate for a disaster otherwise known as June 2016!

    Hi All

    PV Generation - 2nd highest October
    Electricity Import - Lowest October
    Gas Import - Lowest October (zero!)
    Logs - none used


    Importantly, being the first heating season of using the heat-pump the log burner hasn't needed to be used so far, neither have the standard resistance heaters ... working in line with expectations.

    0.11 O`s up here yesterday.

    First month for well over a year I`ve not hit target....generated 188 against a target of 190. Last years October was 227 kWh`s.

    Imported 302 units....admittedly looks bad in comparison to you guys, but I`m still happy with it for a 3 bedroom detached house occupied all day every day by wife and 2 children under 3.

    With poor generation comes poor import : \
