Another cracking day and a glorious sunset with a huge red ball descending through bare tree branches. 4.57 O's taking us to 112% compared to pvgis at this time of month. Graig Fatha subdued at 0.8 O with 13.2 kWh's of energy credited to our account. According to the Givenergy App we Imported 0.1 kWh's today so looks like sunshine, wind and batteries make a winning combination with easing demand upon the Grid!While everything looks rosie for us through summer, next winter will be a different proposition. I'm just hoping the Octopus Go Faster tariff is still alive to assist in keeping energy costs manageable for all those able to take advantage of it.Kirk Hill wind farm now 54% sold.East coast, lat 51.97. 8.26kw SSE, 23° pitch + 0.59kw WSW vertical.

Another corker, 4.9 O's here and just 0.42 O from Graig Fatha. Tomorrows looking even worse before figures begin to climb for a couple of days thereafter.
