Comments

February is not looking at all good. Only 35% towards the expected generation and 57% into the month. I need 2 Os per day for the rest of the month to see me home and that is not looking too hopeful.
Still a bad February is not as bad as a bad summer month like June last year!0 -
Not good today...1.76 O's..:(..2.5 kWp PV system, SSW facing, 45 Deg Roof. ABB Inverter, Monitor: 'Wattson'.
Reg. for FIT Nov 2011. "It's not what you generate; it's how you use it that matters". One very clean Vauxhall Diesel Sri, £30.00 Road Tax:
