    Car Insurance Carver!
    A pretty awesome start to December in Cider Country:

    Sat 8.4kWh
    Sun 5.2kWh
    Mon 4.4kWh

    Today we've already got 4.7kWh in the bag but there's some pesky high cloud restricting generation right now.

    PVGIS Classic estimate for Dec is 2.66kWh/day or 82.3kWh for the month so we're doing very well against that: 5.7kWh/day and 22.9kWh so far (excluding this afternoon's generation).

    Long may it continue! :beer:

    Saving on Eon D/Ds for year = £ 486.00
