    3.2 O's today so under par once more and now looking unlikely to match pvgis this month.
    On a brighter note tomorrow sees the fifth anniversary of our 8.85 kWp system seen now to have averaged 9.298 MWh's/year or 1062 kWh's/1kW of panels installed. PVGIS forecast being 1039 kWh's.

    Very mixed day. Sunny one minute, dull and rainy the next. Far more dull than sun.

    Amazed at the total production for the day. 16.33 kWh or 4.11 O's

    Around 2 O's per day needed to make PVGIS.

    Another rubbish 1.85 O's yesterday. At least today's looking much better.
    Forecast for the next few days suggests PVGIS estimate is out of reach for the second month in a row.

    A respectable 3.2 O's yesterday.
    Today has been great though, with our first ever Maiden, 6 O's exactly! 21.61 kWh
    Barely scraped past the line though, due to something tripping the GCD at 3AM this morning, meaning we missed a good 90 minutes of morning sun.
