    Any truth on the thought that if Scotland vote for independence; the FIT will go to 0.10p for all installs, and when smarts roll out, it will only be paid for kWh that you don't use yourself......:eek:

    An Hawaii + 0.84 O's for me.....coffee.gif

    Think there may be quite a few disgruntled Scottish panel owners if that was to happen, but if that's the price of independence(paying their own FiT) who are we(south of the border) to argue.


    Managed just under 4 O's yesterday, not bad to say it bounced down from 10am to 3pm.....and I mean bounced.
    Looking good for the next week or so, there could be some good numbers posted on here, let's hope so eh folks?
