The wind is coming back with a vengeance. :xx:

"Wind forecasts are signalling an upward trend towards the weekend, with sustained above-normal levels anticipated for the next two weeks."

I take back my words earlier in the month of an under performance of GF this month, looks like exceeding the baseline for Jan. And that means maybe the second or third highest payout ever in the penultimate month of the megabucks rebate rate. :twisted:

Graig Fatha achieves 50% return

By my reckoning GF clocked up a 50% return in the last half hour. Amazing achievement.

Note, on the members home page, the all time generation and return is a barstewardised figure. It contains the confirmed generation to date and excludes any estimated generation - generally today's generation and up to two days' previous generation. Oddly enough the month figure for the current month includes all estimated generation updated every ten minutes.

By 20.30hrs we are 50.04424779%. The wheel keeps on turning. :twisted:

As 1st March will be the new price implementation point I've taken a liberty and since I'd forgot to allow for a leap year. Closest at Midnight on the 29th Feb 🏆.

Rain has arrived here and wind is picking up. Looks like GF site will be worth watching 21.00hrs onwards.

Especially the blade angle. :twisted:

How high will it go to prevent overspeed ? :?
