    Really mixed bag of weather the last week. Numbers creept up higher, but then yesterday arrived with dark clouds and heavy rain predicted every hour ..... and the forecast was right, only about half an O.

    Still projecting about 96% for July.
    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.

    1.28 O's yesterday and today looks like it could be worse. At 62% of PVGIS and looking doubtful of much improvement over the next few days.
