    I ended up with 103% of PVGIS for July, seriously thought I wouldn't hit target given the appalling second half of the month. I was at 65% of target at the half way point, then it came off the rails!!

    3.34 O's yesterday
    Finished the month on a disappointing 93% of PVGIS (compared to 99% last year).
    Second half has been a complete disaster. :(

    Well, isn't this just dandy! ..... :o

    .... Worst July so far with total generation not being much different than April & June and around 25% down on 2013 ..... thank goodness for a relatively average May, in ranking as our 4th best May to date it pulled this year's average to just about abysmal as opposed to totally abysmal, so it must just be a case of payback for previous years ...

    So much for the year so far ... here's to a couple of MWh months to correct the course .... :beer: .. :D

    My fingers are cold ... should I put the heating on ???
