    We need about 20 O's, so fingers crossed.

    Still the weather for May looks great from 2nd to 8th (and ok tomorrow), but I'm sure the forecast will change next time I look.
    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.

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

    Another rubbish month. 3.1 Os here today. April total 300.3 kWh, 77 Os, 74% of PVGIS estimate. March was only 74% as well.

    If it wasn't for the stellar February at 127% I'd be checking my roof to see how many panels are missing!
    Cheltenham. 3.90 Kwp system. SSE = 2.73kwp (14 x 195w panels), WWS = 1.17kwp (6 x 195w panels). 30 degree slope.
