Just for a change the weather forecast appears to have been all askew over the last day or so as wind speeds for WT1 suggested nothing more than a nominal output when actually it was turning like a good'un all day returning a CF of 82%. Still cranking well above expectations today, although nationally wind generation does appear to be tailing off a bit. Similarly it was supposed to be cloudy all day here yet panels returned above Feb average, so a win, win for us at least. :D

Meant to add, while Wales appears to be in the doldrums wind wise currently, here they are circa 10 mph and 22 up at Kirk Hill which is still on track for completion Oct/Nov according to chatbox. As a consolation sitting in glorious sunshine so at least PV is keeping generation abreast of consumption. :D
