Hit Apr target a couple of days ago, predicting 123% if average weather, and closing in on best ever Apr, but the forecast for these last 4 days is poor, so it'll be close. But a big Wink to end the sunny run yesterday with 4.7 O's.Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 28kWh 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.5 -
Also hit April target a couple of days ago. Today surpassed the June target, which is the highest monthly target of the year. Not quite reached the April 2015 total but only 15kWh away from it, with a daily expected of 16.91 and 3 days. Depending on the weather for the next few days I could come in anywhere between 120% and 135% of expectations. But either way will be my best April ever...
