    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.

    For general PV advice please see the PV FAQ thread on the Green & Ethical Board.

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

    Historically, June has been an erratic month, but without any exceptional results.
