Saint Swithin's Day today. Hope this means 40 more days of generation in excess of 20kWh per day.Are you for real? - Glass Half Empty??

22.9kWh today (6.18 O's) which is slightly up on Sat/Sun as it was a little cooler & breezier in Cider Country, plus there was some afternoon fluffy stuff to diffract some radiation our way.

A sad 5.88 O's for me today.2.5 kWp PV system, SSW facing, 45 Deg Roof. ABB Inverter, Monitor: 'Wattson'.

Not sure I can go on!
After Saturdays disappointment of slipping under 30kWhs, it just goes from bad to worse. Last two days got 28.8kWh and 29.8kWh (5.16 & 5.34 Os). It's just not fair.
Just to be serious for a minute, 28.8 is the lowest figure in an 11 day run, that totals 337.6kWh's - Wowza!
@tunnel - cheers, been researching 'split system' AC's with (effectively) ASHP capabilities. Could possibly supply most of my daylight heating Mch/Apr & Sep/Oct, when temps outside allow a decent COP, and most leccy coming from the PV. Definitely got me pondering.
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.

Half way through the month with 72% of target met
At this rate looking at ~600kWh/£300 for July
