Not a bad month at 10.4% over PVGIS but way, way down on last June. On the plus side my FiT payment for April-June is just under double my total gas and electricity charges for those months, not bad for a 2kW system.2kWp Solar PV - 10*200W Kioto, SMA Sunny Boy 2000HF, SSE facing, some shading in winter, 37° pitch, installed Jun-2011, inverter replaced Sep-2017 AND Feb-2022.4
