    Consumption yr to date 10206 kWh's.
    PV generation                  8677 kWh's
    PV Consumed                 6098
    WT1 gen                          2379

    Adding PV consumed to WT1 gen = 8477 kWh's so shy of what we've consumed to date and having to import more than we'd like. We could really do with another 1729 kWh's of generation to make up the difference!
    With Covid restrictions having eased then EV consumption has been higher than in the past years, 8k plus this year compared to 6k ish previously. Then there's our neighbour, with a hybrid, who has been charging with us via the Co Charger App so a few more kWh's there.
    Afraid there's little I can do about it for this year or for most of next come to that matter. However, if all goes according to plan then WT2 should commence generating by late '23 so with a bit of luck will make up any shortfall from then on.
    Our share of WT1 generation for November was the highest so far at 436 kWh's or 127% of an average month.
