Welcome Fintray, one of the few with more PV than me :o

But your battery is a bit smaller. :mrgreen:
18.7kW PV > 109MWh generated
Ripple 6.6kW Wind + 4.5kW PV > 30MWh generated
6 Other RE Coop's
105kWh EV storage
60kWh Home battery storage
40kWh Thermal storage
GSHP + A2A HP's
Rain water use > 520 m3

Good evening all. Thanks for approving my registration, and great great work to make this happen. Was anyone else as surprised as I was at just how depressing and irritating the whole saga has been? Depth of feeling it has elicited in me has been quite remarkable.

Have you been able to contact quite a few of the old guard? I do hope they can be brought in from the cold, asitwere.

And finally, just a massive THANK YOU.

We should be here for a while. I told my Mum & Dad I'd be out late.

Re- 'the others', once you move beyond the group that chatted/ met up outside the old forum it's in the hands of fate. Karmic flow should favour them over time I hope. Didn't feel great there for a while but better just dumping that toxicity and go forward. Happy days! :)

I am hoping that anyone who finds their way here and enjoys engaging with their online mates will pass the forum address on to their Eco-pals. We are not here to take business away from anybody or the traffic that passes through other sites.

Just looking to provide an optional Virtual shed where you can put your feet up, tell us all about your thoughts and adventures in the world of RE, bring some news and help each other along. If the occasional new start stumbles through the shed door we'll be able to help them out.

That's a good thing! :)

Are we comparing battery sizes?
