2.38 O's for PV yesterday coupled with 0.2 for wind, so a bit after the Lords Mayors show following the previous day returns. Trailing well behind pvgis at a mere 73%. With a roast dinner on the go and DHW requiring a substantial top up then, apart from winds contribution I suspect there will be precious little finding it's way to the grid today.
