  • 2.13 O's for yesterday.
    Also gone through the record for July; that's 3 months in a row of new records. :j:T:j

    Same here, I hit over 600 Kwh in May, June was 563 Kwh and after thinking this month was going to fall short of both of these I've hit 594 Kwh.

    So after a really poor Jan, Feb, Mar and April I've had my best May, June and July.

    Best month ever - of course - following last month which was the best month ever… 718kWh, or 137 Os.

    Had the best 31 days in a row over the heatwave all been in July it would have been about 800kWh or 152 Os. Given that absolute maximum my system could ever deliver on a perfect day is about 32kWh, or 992kWh/189 Os in a month, this has been a really quite special 6 weeks. Just a shame it didn't rain every day during the hours of darkness:rotfl:

    Great July here, and second best July ever by just 33kWh (July 2013).

    Got 742kWhs 133 O's.

    Imported 90kWhs, (bit high) and consumed a massive 294kWh's, up from about 220 in May and June, due to near constant daytime use of A/C. Exported 527kWhs.

    Yearly total now predicting 104% and 4,564kWhs (best ever 2014 4,603kWhs).
    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.
