    Reg. for FIT Nov 2011. "It's not what you generate; it's how you use it that matters". One very clean Vauxhall Diesel Sri, £30.00 Road Tax: B)

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

    Hi

    There's probably a couple of local(ish) systems to compare your generation to on the PVOutput website ... have a quick search for - 'pvoutput solar monitoring & comparison' ..

    Have a look into teams & select the United Kingdom then select Map & zoom in on your area ...

    Couldn’t resist signing up to this. It saves me having to produce my own graphs. Thanks Zeupater :beer:

    Been a bit grey and boring here, but interesting to note that finally a good day arrived yesterday when others struggled - Wales, we like to be different!

    3.20 O's. But overall Sept is now predicting 98% if the rest of the month is average.
    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.
