    Well I missed this months target of 330 kwh by 1.25 kwh so pretty pleased with that. My system has been installed for just over 2 years and with monthly savings and FIT I have made £2,200 so am slightly ahead of my 6 years 6 month target of breaking even

    On off day.

    2.89 O's

    104.6% of estimate.

    My worst 3rd quarter of 4 years. July - Sept

    For the 9 months of 2017 I am at 110.8% of Estimate.
    For the 9 months of 2016 I was at 113.3% of Estimate.
    For the 9 months of 2015 I was at 120.9% of Estimate.

    Still a good year!

    Will need 122% of Estimate for the last 3 months of 2017 to make 4 MWh's for the year.

    We got 92% of pvgis which pretty much reflected the month, started off dull, went downhill.

    Ok Sept, got 394.8kWh v's target of 379kWh, so about 104%. Previous years range from 347-443kWhs.

    Import was 104kWh, with total household consumption of 204kWh, so only used 25% of PV generation ..... starting to think - battery!
    Mart. Cardiff. 5.58 kWp PV systems (3.58 ESE & 2.0 WNW). Two A2A units for cleaner heating.

    For general PV advice please see the PV FAQ thread on the Green & Ethical Board.
