    Zero generation for a whole week isn't impossible and has happened here when panels covered in snow. Hopefully we shouldn't get that just yet.
    I've just logged on to Energynote & it couldn't have been any worse if it had snowed today in North Lincs.

    To make matters worse, import currently stands at 18.7kWh....:eek:

    Snow today would probably mean you'd have generated a little before it started then nothing afterwards. It would certainly be worse than that if it had snowed yesterday, covered panels completely and not thawed at all today.

    Worst day since 27 July with 0.45 Os. Now at 90% of October PVGIS pro rata.

  • Very grey and overcast all day so 0.46 O recorded today, plus an 11 minute power cut which the battery handled nicely. There is a transient dip as the gateway switches from grid to battery but the computers stayed up. The AV amplifier and plasma TV didn't, both went into standby and I had to turn them back on.
