I'm surprised that all the thought smoke coming out of Oscar's can, hasn't inspired him .... yet!
Mmmmm!!! That has got me thinking Mart. Maybe Oscar is using the power of the sun to help him think. Maybe he only uses smoke thought in the winter!!!
Generation going really well here today 6kWh at 12.25pm and weathers good!!! Always had rubbish generation in the mornings. Until now that is!!!!

.... if it's anything like around here you'd have wrung the ducks' necks, shoved them into the freezer then washed the panels in order to up the average generation.Anyone??????????????????
The heavy rain about a week ago finally washed the last of the ginormous streak of duck-excrement which has been on one of our panels for months, just in time for it to be renewed afresh then well baked on last week .... we're pretty lucky again (& so are the ducks !) as this streak is also between cells !! ...
Maybe we should exchange recipes ....

.... the ones around here are all wild and can definitely fly, as evidenced by the house ridgeline ....
They tend to spend much of the day on a lake about 1/4 mile away, then sunning themselves with the horses in the field behind us before taking in the view from our roof .... it didn't used to be too bad, but there seems to have been a population explosion recently which the local Sparrowhawks have been leaving alone in preference to all of the fat doves & pigeons .... I've even seen a Buzzard ripping one apart on the lawn since they've brought the rabbit population under control, but unfortunately not this year ....
Made some room in the freezer for the glut of peas which we have this year, but not many seem to make it from the pod to anywhere other than mouth .... mmmmmm, ah well, there's still time to get sick of them, then again, there's always next year ....

Hiya, technically I've told Oscar twice, and given a pretty good clue to Tunnel (if you link up the references). Perhaps, for once in my life, I was too subtle?
Another good day, well, slightly above average, but that's always better than below.
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.0 -
So the answer is nope.
What does that stand for?....?

4.8 O's today, helped along by a steady 12kWh from my ESE
I checked my parents generation yesterday and since their install 1 month ago they've racked up a very healthy 520kWh, not bad at all from a 1.5kWp east/2.5kWp west split
As for Edwink, am I to assume that you've somehow elevated the panels to a higher level?2 kWp SEbE , 2kWp SSW & 2.5kWp NWbW.....in sunny North Derbyshire17.7kWh Givenergy battery added(for the power hungry kids)0
