Grey weather predicted for Cardiff till Xmas Eve (as far as the forecast goes), but some sun on the 21st, so I'll look forward to that.
Generation now is just 0.2kWh from the WNW, and 0 or 1kWh each alternating day from the ESE which has no decimal places, so a grand average each day of ~0.13 O's ...... rounded up!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.
