Another good day, 2.03 O's and third best Nov generation since install. Currently 20% up on PVGIS v5, looking at the forecast for tomorrow then, while possible, it'sunlikely to grab second spot.Took part in todays saving session but as not yet gaining an Export Mpan gave that side a miss as last time despite exporting a kWh no credit for it was granted. If our Mpan does arrive in time then perhaps we can try again in a future session.Edit. Just checking yesterdays grid import between 17.00 & 18.30 hrs the total was 0.067 kW's so will struggle to improve much on that during today's session!East coast, lat 51.97. 8.26kw SSE, 23° pitch + 0.59kw WSW vertical. Nissan Leaf plus Zappi charger and 2 x ASHP's. Givenergy 8.2 & 9.5 kWh batts, 2 x 3 kW ac inverters. Indra V2H . CoCharger Host, Interest in Ripple Energy & Abundance.2

1.4 O's on a sunny but very cold day here in Barnsley.
The battery was full of sunshine (and a bit of leftover night-time boost) at 3.30 this afternoon, so used the grid until 5.00 so I could export as much as possible in the SS. Tea was a pre-planned quick cook at 4.50, reheated a tub of veggie chilli in the "dinger" for 4 mins, tipped it into an oven dish that had a pack of cheesy doritos in the bottom, bit of grated cheese on top and 2 mins under the grill. On the table at 4.59 as a share bowl for me and hubby.
I suggested candle light but got "the bloody energy police are at it again" look, so we may have lost out on around 80w of possible extra exportBarnsley, South Yorkshire
