Well done... I am thinking of moving my SP to some where in middle east
If ever I get my FIT forms sorted then might get some money as well..... I am with Npower sent forms recorded delivery on 9th June. Not been tracked, no sign of it being delivered, I emailed FIT Npower FIT team to find out if they received the forms but they are not replying to emails. Yesterday I posted the forms again using different post office, using recorded delivery, still no record of being delivered.
Royal Mail won't do anything until after 15 working days of item being posted. Npower FIT Admin auto reply states to contact them after 6 weeks If I don't hear anything........

My advice would be to send them Special Delivery, from past experience recorded is a waste of money these days. Don't bother e-mailing Npower, get on the phone to the FIT Dept. When I registered mine, it was sent Special D, they had it next day, and managed to deal with it 10 weeks later. Although the registration went from the day they recieved it. (Eon)Good Luck!

Yep, the nights are drawing in now
I guess you are referring to the fact that there was a leap day this year?
According to the Sunrise/Sunset times I downloaded for our location, both 21st and 22nd June 2012 have sunrise at 0354 and sunset at 2031 (both GMT).
Yesterday's 16hrs37m of 'sun' produced a grand total of 7.1kWh and today is just as grey and miserable.Cider Country Solar PV generator: 3.7kWp Enfinity system on unshaded SE (-36deg azimuth) & 45deg roof0 -

Try writing to "Tom" if you still have Npower problems?

As they say in Welsh Wales; dim problem. Glad you have it sorted. You can now calculate your dues from the number on your Gen meter from when it was installed. :beer:2.5 kWp PV system, SSW facing, 45 Deg Roof. ABB Inverter, Monitor: 'Wattson'.

The British Gas rules said you could create the contract by snail mail within 5 days of installation [as enforced by law, they did not want you to do that and proceeded to lose my contract returned signed by snail mail] or by email on the day that the email was received.
As I was part of the 3rd of March rush, and as it had taken a week for my installer to register me, I had to accept the loss of about £50 of initial generation.0
