Likewise here. Currently need 30Kwh to get me through the 600Kwh barrier for the first time (never been near it since install). Today is forecast cloudy with sun later and the rest of the month cloudy so may just crawl over
Edit: Finished with 11.91Kwh (cloudy morning and sun came out at 2pm to rescue the day). I now need 18 Kwh with tomorrow looking like another mirror of today and Wednesday and Thursday looking very cloudy. I really suspect the 600Kwh mark is going to end like my Grand National bets and fall at the last fence:rotfl:0 -
700 Kwh looking pretty much nailed on.16 265w panels South facing, 45 degrees, West Norfolk.0
