    Well it's defiantly starting to get better, the sunlight even on cloudy days is generating more. Need a decent end to March to hit target though.
    Averaging 6.8kw a day this month.

    Well, another record breaker today. 16.2kWh or 4.5 Os, smashing the previous record of 3.6 earlier this month (and first ever winks). Highest peak generation of 3.55kW at 11:15, particularly impressive given the whole system is 3.6kWp and it's impossible for all the panels to get optimal sun at once. The chill in the air definitely helping there.

    Great to have all that power on laundry day, at least it would be, if we'd not been out for all of it for mother's day!

    I'm only a few miles from you... roof faces 165 degrees which means I get early sunshine.

    Yes, I've noticed we've had nicer mornings then it's clouded up later which doesn't work well with my SW 230 degrees panels  :/
