Renewables: "talking 'bout my generation"

Story of 2 halves for me, my ESE has done 277kWhs for July which is 27% above estimate, yet my SSW has "only" managed 255kWhs, just 15% above estimate.
Luckily, my FITs provider made a complete c*ck up of my SSW contract and i'm getting paid the same rate as my ESE system which was installed in 2011. Guess that helps with the shortfall on generation. Just over £250 for this month alone in total for both.2 kWp SEbE , 2kWp SSW & 2.5kWp NWbW.....in sunny North Derbyshire17.7kWh Givenergy battery added(for the power hungry kids)0 -
Hiya

You get too much holiday, get in the real world...:rotfl:Luckily, my FITs provider made a complete c*ck up of my SSW contract and i'm getting paid the same rate as my ESE system which was installed in 2011.

We have just had our best month since install (Feb 2012).
We generated 245.11kWh in July 2012
we generated 324.20kWh this month.
Really pleased with that!!!

571KW from a 3.92kw system.
Was hoping to go over 600kw but the last 10 days of the month were poor.
Best month ever....year to date (since install date 08/02) is 2393kw.....and there's 6 months left.....hopefully Aug-Oct can be something close to 1000kw and then there won't be much after that.0
