    So far it's done 90% pvg this month.. The highest it has achieved since june. Before highest was July with 87% PVG.. Still have 15 days left....

    Similar experience here - will probably finish today (fairly shortly) around 0.5kWh short of PVGIS classic (which is 75kWh for my 4kWp split system). Not sure a good December is compensation for a duff July but better than a week of snow sitting on the panels! That said the forecast for the next couple of days is OK so should clock a few more yet.

    If your username refers to what I think it does then you're only 20 miles west of us, so that'll explain our similar results. 7.5kWh today so the rest of the month's generation is a bonus on top of the estimated FiT. Santa's come early!

    Sun most of day, but some haze at times. During bright sunshine system 1 went ahead (due to roof angle) but system 2 caught up a bit when the sun was more hazy.

    Been a quiet week here, just ticking over with mostly average days, and a few nasties, so early Dec headstart is slipping, but still looking like hitting target. 2.5 today.

    Mart.
    Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 20kWh battery storage. Two A2A units for cleaner heating. Two BEV's for cleaner driving.

    My 14th Dec was a disaster (51Wh) but three brightish days since have taken me through the PVGIS forecast of 64.1 kWH.

    65kWh in first 17 days of Dec so a pretty fair chance of another 12kWh (or hopefully more) in the rest of this year to beat Dec 2011

    Well said and how right you are..;)

    3.7kWh for me; 11.87% above PVGIS so far this month... so not flat lining..:T

    4.1 kWh today, which wasnt bad considering the rain in Cider country.
    111% of PVGIS Classic estimate for Dec already in the bag.
