    Hit the dizzy heights of nearly 3kWh today, four times yesterday!!

    I may have a source on the inside of Western Power, found out a friends son is an apprentice with them!
    Asked what the official view is on kWp, kW, kWh, amps, jam or marmalade on toast?

    He didn't know but was confident that someone in his office could give some not so contradictory information.

    I'll update as and when...

    Reg. for FIT Nov 2011. "It's not what you generate; it's how you use it that matters". One very clean Vauxhall Diesel Sri, £30.00 Road Tax: B)

    Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).

    Two weeks in, and October ticking over ok (with week 1 making up for week 2). Currently suggesting 101% for the month, so I'm happy.

    Heating now on for 30 mins morning and evening, not so happy, but still a very low gas year so far ...... should I have said that! :silenced:

    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.

    Quick update before I find me pit...

    Young fella me lad left a name and number with the current Mrs theboylard before I got home.

    So I now have a name and number at Kettering - any specific questions you want asking?
    I will ask him if he'll join us here to save chinese whispers, once he's signed off my extra 32 panels - got to be cheaper than cladding surely?!
