    As expected at this time of year, producing an average of about an O a day over the last 10 days.

    Looking like we will be about 105% of PVGIS estimate by the end of the month.

    Since getting the EV and a Smart meter installed (to go on the Octopus Go tariff), can now actually see how much we are exporting each day, rather than estimating it. Exported a total of 15.4kWh over 18 days.

    Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).
  • At only 1.72 O's I can't compete with you today Oscar. On the plus side it is still keeping us nicely ahead of pvgis.

    A very welcome 3.33 Os today, best for some time. I've now exceeded my best ever October total, 2011.

  • 2.3 O's today, so another above average figure for October. Mind you tomorrow's looking decidedly iffy!
