    Good month, just an O short of 2015 (best Sep).

    Got 437kWh's, 78.3 O's.
    Imported 104kWh's
    Exported 337kWh's
    Consumed 204kWh's
    Gas consumption ~66kWh's (6 units)

    Still looking like best year, with a projected 107% if the rest is average. Leccy consumption ~3,000kWh's and gas at twice that if Q4 heating is average.
    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.
