    Had a bit of a mixture of everything weatherwise yesterday, cloud, rain and bright sunshine. Ended up generating 11kWh :). It was the best (or, more accurately, least awful :D) day in over a week. (Only generated 2kWh on Sunday :()

    Don't despair, I only did 2.2kWh on that Sunday. So you beat me by 0.02 based on system size:eek: ;)

    Doing OK then; as you can see from my posts, mine did 3.8kWh yesterday. Today 4.9kWh. So your 5.7kWh looks OK. :D Welcome to this thread. :T:T :beer:

    Hiya Sheafeeq, so you've made it to the generation thread. There's no hope for you now, you'll be up at all hours checking your TGM, even at 3.39AM waiting for the sun! :)

    Welcome to a lousy June's generation, with (as far as Cardiff is concerned) at least another week+ of cloud and rain. Today should be great, have to make the most of it.

    Mart.
    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.
