    My tariff info is:
    Export model: Net Daily
    Credit Rates - Export Peak: 4.77 (it was 4.64, but changed when new rate came in... unsure if it affected previously entered figures)
    Generation Peak: 14.9

    That should help. Alter figures to reflect your own FiT rate of course :D

    Week 1 (yes I'm a little behind!) closed just ahead of target, but today has put it slightly behind. Still, this year going ok, but like a 7mm masonry drill - 'it's just a little bit boring'.

    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.

    For general PV advice please see the PV FAQ thread on the Green & Ethical Board.
