Do feel free to participate in the monthly generation thread (don't be shy). It is important because it puts your own generation in perspective with others. Look forward to any input which will be much appreciated and thanks in advance.

Apart from a breakdown in 2015, it was my worst August (pro rata) ever over the 10 years I've had Solar PV. Dry but very stubborn thick cloud on many days.

But still just managed to make it through with with only 8kWh import, circa 0.88% of leccy power consumed at Nowty Towers.

462 Kwh generated, a lowly 57.4pkWp. On the upside 88.67% of power in August self generated.

A crazy 27 deg day here today with the HWT making a late comeback and being fully charged. Just shows, you never know what Solar World will throw at you! :0
