    This May was the best for me since install in 2014, with 508.9 kWh generated, or 130.49 Os, which is 112% of my PVGIS.

    Still down on the year though due to March & April. By this point 2015 was the best year so far (out of not very many!)

    Looks like a good day today.
    Cheltenham. 3.90 Kwp system. SSE = 2.73kwp (14 x 195w panels), WWS = 1.17kwp (6 x 195w panels). 30 degree slope.

    Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).

    A bit grim here too, 1.71 O's only. On the bright side, it's still about double our daily consumption.
