    December results.

    Slightly poor month with 91% of target. No spread, with 92% for the ESE and 91% for the WNW.

    Generated 72kWh (12.94 O's).
    Imported 536kWh.
    Exported 14kWh.
    Consumed 594kWh. 
    Gas was ~1,617kWh. 

    Import and export still high. BEV driving all night rate now.  A2A units used when PV spare, also being used on cheaper night rate leccy when the temp outside isn't too low.

    107% for the year, with 841kWh/kWp.

    Totals for the year:

    Generated 4,691kWh 
    Imported 3,970kWh.
    Exported 1,944kWh.
    Consumed 6,717kWh. 
    Gas was ~5,291kWh.


    Being all BEV our import and consumption has been increased, but export reduced a bit. Also the A2A units have reduced our gas consumption. But really need some steep south facing PV and a battery to improve things now. Still working on it.

    Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 20kWh battery storage. Two A2A units for cleaner heating. Two BEV's for cleaner driving.

    For general PV advice please see the PV FAQ thread on the Green & Ethical Board.
