Bit of a poor month for my FIT's. Lower gen this month than each of May June and July, not ideal for the main summer month.

Re: August Generation
Might not have been a great month but when you get paid just shy of £1k for June, July and August FiT it's something I can live with.

Re: August Generation
My notable is that August production was identical to July at 134.5 kwh/kwp
Re: August Generation
I had a record August from my Sunsynk system - 615kWh, vs PVGIS of 500, and previous best of 579kWh. 2nd best month of this year as may, June & July were all down.

Re: August Generation
August was yet another month with lower generation than last year, but I can't complain too much as PV still covered 71% of my needs, even with car charging.
Grid import is higher than normal due to the Free Power Hour from Octopus.
EV efficiency is down a little this month, MrsPablo and I are enjoying the uplift in performance! It's definitely a step up from a 17 year old Fiesta...
