A really poor raining month and tree screenage at this time of year as the sun has dipped and tracks below the treeline. :( TBH, surprised too! 60 washing machine cycles? :)

After a shockingly worst Summer ever and the original main 4kW system looking like generating sub 4000 kWh this year for the first time ever, Oct has been practically bang on my baseline generation for the month.

Total generation from all panels looks like coming in second best year ever but that includes extra panels installed in late 2019.

I note this is the first year that the UK did not break the peak Solar PV record even with more capacity installed, Its still 9.6GW from 20th April 2020.
18.7kW PV > 110MWh generated
Ripple 6.6kW Wind + 4.5kW PV > 33MWh generated
7 Other RE Coop's
105kWh EV storage
90kWh Home battery storage
40kWh Thermal storage
GSHP + A2A HP's
Rain water use > 530 m3
