Month end prediction at 109%. Being held up by good week 1 as the rest has been pretty miserable. Gen just about covering the two ASHP's, so long as they don't both draw at the same time.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.

Only 0.6kWh on the WNW system but that took it to 12,000.0kWhs.
And people told me I was crazy to put a small system on a shaded roof with a 'N' in the orientation? Actually people were calling me crazy long before I got into PV, but I'm slowly learning to ignore the voices in my head!

We've had the lights on all day, feels more like winter in the arctic circle lately.
The sun looks set to return over the next couple of days though.
