    Put's hand up and asks, what are O's please?
    O's are the day's generation in kWh/your panel's kWp . It was invented by a forum member long ago to make he playing field a little more level, so the one with the most panels didn't always "win".

    Today my panels generated 18.3kWh so 18.3/5.25 = 3.49 O's

    Mostly cloudy with a few sunny spells, cleared up around 5pm and was a lovely evening. 


    Ah, OK, so we had a good day yesterday, unbroken sun for a lot of the afternoon, so 6.15 O's for us yesterday.  We've only had our panels since 4th July, and this is the best day since then.

    Togo reporting is still down with an ETA for resolution at the 'Beginning of September' Which is disappointing as I've paid for the premium reporting option. I'm assured that the data is being captured but due to processing issues is not been accurately reported. As I have little conference in the figures being obtained, I'll refrain from posting until resolved.

    I'll see your worst, and raise you an abysmal. Got 0.22 O's yesterday.

    Somehow, still holding on to a positive for August, with a month end projection of 101%, but again the WNW is doing the heavy lifting with 108%, whilst the ESE slips to 98%.
    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.
