    Mixed bag so far, projecting 93% for Dec. But my DC side batts do knock the generation figure down (Nov-Feb) due to charging losses when I grid charge overnight. So 93% is OK, last Dec closed at 28%   :o
    Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 28kWh 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.
