A cloudy morning was followed by a perfect curve from 2pm onward to return a very welcome 3.4 O's although I doubt we shall trouble 2019's March return, the best to date. A good day for wind in Wales too with 1.12 O's but not looking good there for the week ahead. Average daily output since start up 0.97 O so in these very early days it would appear fairly close to yearly average anticipated output.
