Hawaii + 0.06.
Good morning and superb evening but poor middle of the day again.Northern Lincolnshire. 7.8 kWp system, (4.2 kw west facing panels , 3.6 kw east facing), Solis inverters, Solar IBoost water heater, Mitsubishi SRK35ZS-S and SRK20ZS-S Wall Mounted Inverter Heat Pumps, ex Nissan Leaf owner)0 -
Hit a low of 91% for June end, but have bounced all the way back to 92% after two nice days. With a nice day today, then three poor days predicted, followed by 5 good days to close June, I've no idea where the final figure will end up (place your bets!) but I doubt it's going to be excessively good nor bad.
So year end, at the half way mark, about 102%.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.

I'm now at 93.8% & like you, have no idea how June will pan out.
