    Bucking the trend, 5.8 for yesterday and almost abreast of pvgis. But dull here today so will fall back from that 98.6% hiatus for the month so far. On the plus side we did creep past 11 MWhrs this morning since installation. :)

    Not too clever a day, but looking to do around 450.00 squid FIT reward for this 1/4 on the 22nd. Last year:£396.59 so much smarter even without the 'Smart Meter' that ain't smart at all: never going to volunteer to get one ( how hard is it to read yer meter once a month)? ..:rotfl::rotfl::beer: Today: 2.96 O's....coffee.gif

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

    I'm hoping for around £6-700 for my quarter,got 8 days left before readings go in. My current leccy tariff states i must have a "smart" meter fitted(my mistake when signing up(small print)) but i've managed to head the leccy company off for 6 months while i consider it...lol....my tariff finishes a couple of months later so i'll have had the benefit of a cheaper leccy tariff but without the "upgrade"
    Just over a couple of O's in the bag today and over 63 O's for the month so far
    2 kWp SEbE , 2kWp SSW & 2.5kWp NWbW.....in sunny North Derbyshire17.7kWh Givenergy battery added(for the power hungry kids)

    A mixed bag it seems today so 2.9 O's here is not to be sniffed at. I'd be delighted with anywhere near that in December. :)
