    October finished poorly but still closed at 98% of target, so no complaints, and predicting 107% for the year, and 10 O's above previous best ever year.

    So, generation 227kWh's and 40.66 O's.
    Export 131kWh.
    Import 155kWh.
    Consumption 250kWh.

    And GCH went on in October, so a massive ~715kWh's Ouch!
    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.

    It's been my worst October ever (since 2010). System 1 = 77% of PVGIS and system 2 = 63%.

    Only two days when there has been any amount of sun. The rest of the time has been rain and grey clouds. November has not started well either: 500Wh so far from the 6kWp total system.
    Solar PV System 1: 2.96kWp South+8 degrees. Roof 38 degrees. 'Normal' system
    Solar PV System 2: 3.00kWp South-4 degrees. Roof 28 degrees. SolarEdge system
    EV car, PodPoint charger
