    Gen so far projects 100% for end of month, but the weather forecast for the week ahead strongly disagrees.  :(
    The predicted cloud cover here means I'll be lucky to reach 100% by Friday evening....
    But MetOffice shows total cloud right now and I'm in full sun so taking all that with a large pinch of salt.

    You couldn't have been more right even if you worked in a 'no left turn' sign factory.  B)

    Tuesday's poor weather prediction changed on the day, and was our best generation day so far this year. Another Hawaii and gen just over 30kWh, and we don't get many 30+ days here. 5.47 O's

    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.
