0.44 O's to finish the month and by far the poorest since installation at 68% of PVGIS.2023 ended at 98% of PVGIS, compared with 106% for 2022. However, better average export rates and the use of lower overnight import rates have resulted in greater savings.6.4kWp (16 * 400Wp REC Alpha) facing ESE + 5kW Huawei inverter + 10kWh Huawei battery.
