    A slightly disappointing 2.91 O’s

    I shouldn’t complain because it’s the first day with any meaningful import day for a week.

    An unexpectedly good day. 1 kWh ahead of previous 2019 best most of the day then at teatime a few clouds appeared so finished at 3.995 Os, just 40 wh short of a wink. Half way through and at 49% of full month target so mustn’t grumble.

    A very welocme 5.36 O's today bringing us almost on par at halfway through the month.

    According to Solaredge we've now harvested 10MWh's energy, although the export meter disagrees, showing some 310kWh's less!

    Actually, insolation should rise during the month so if you've got to half of April's 'ration' by halfway through the month you're doing better than pvgis would predict.

    I've just checked & I'm at 60.6% so it looks very promising. Only need 2.48 O's a day from now on.
