Renewables: "talking 'bout my generation"
Comments
-
I'm away from home and don't have access to my generation meter, but based on the inverter app (which reads a bit high) we made just under 2400kWh this year. That's my worst full year on record (last year was 2200kWh but my inverter was dead for a whole summer month where I'd have expected to generate 300+ kWh).
