Wall to wall sunshine today resulting in best return of '22 with 2.35 O's. We were out all day so unable to take much advantage of it, other than having the DHW topped up alongside the ashp's ticking over. Shame the storage batts on order hadn't been installed as they would have soaked up most of the surplus. But hey, what a great problem to have to worry about.East coast, lat 51.97. 8.26kw SSE, 23° pitch + 0.59kw WSW vertical. Nissan Leaf plus Zappi charger and 2 x ASHP's.
