It is supposed to be a good day tomorrow, but alas I'm not going to beat May monthly production, due to today and yesterday being so bad.

You may actually beat me today, although it is a little brighter this afternoon.

1 good hour of production for you and you will fly past me with that 300sq ft array you have lol........some say they can see it from the skies on their flights out of heathrow lol.

Yup the last two bad days have scuppered my chances of beating May, but i have beat my target for the month, so its all good and another huge month of export too. So more into the coffers for winter

Its turned quite decent here now.
The Welsh have been banished.

Currently at 4kw and holding.

Quite cool as well plus a little wind so the panels shouldn't get too hot. Maybe 20 odd on the cards.

I need 35 from today and tomorrow combined to exceed target by 200, and May by 100

i have blatted May already and also hit my goal for the end of june (mid point of the year i hoped to have exported more than i imported for the year at i have done that and a fair bit more) the sun is shining now and my clean panels working well. todays import already covered as well as my electric standing charge. just need to export 3 or 4 kwh more to cover gas charges for the day and then hopefully get a bit of profit as well to wrap up the day.

todays import, gas and standing charges are currently £1.29 for me......i have exported 8 @22p, so already on the plus side for today. The rest is bonus cashpot time lol

I had to pay 85p for electric yesterday, today is even worse.

Broke 900 - likely to break 930 which is not bad.

After two days in single figures I'm back to slightly above my June average with 35.8kWh. Those couple of days have stopped me having any hope of reaching 1MWh for the month, but will cruise past 950 tomorrow.

18.8kwhs in the end and @Ron-ski caught me up too

That was a bit of luck, otherwise I would never have heard the end of it

27.8 down here. Perked up as the day went on.

Mercenary Keyboard Warrior · 29 Jun 2023 at 22:02

25.4 so month to 717 and only 9 needed tomorrow to beat forecast by 200.
Pretty mad!

SoliD · 29 Jun 2023 at 22:04

That's a big leap over your forecast. Know it's been a good month but almost more than a 3rd over!

I would have dined out on it for weeks lol

gpuerrilla · 29 Jun 2023 at 23:12

19.4kWh not gonna complain when I experienced them dank almost single digit days recently.

Welshman · 30 Jun 2023 at 07:45

Looks like the gods have decided my panels need a good clean.......

Hawk Tuah · 30 Jun 2023 at 08:16

Phew. Was looking at the weather last night and thought I'd need to force a bit of a charge overnight.

BBC Weather: Technical glitch which affected BBC platforms fixed

A tech error which saw BBC platforms forecast 7C temperatures for next week has been resolved.

Luckily I checked with met office too and decided against it.

Yep I have exceeded forecast most months.

I think the installers were cautious and maybe the weather has been better than average most months.

SoliD · 30 Jun 2023 at 10:10

Always good, i've been above in the summer months and below in the winter (mostly due to shading from next doors roof which wasn't noted during quoting), but today is my 1 year and i'm almost bang on the quoted figures accounting for the 60 days I had no inverter.

gpuerrilla · 30 Jun 2023 at 10:55

Another wet one. Cleaner panels that Ron-ski might be my new location update..

Soon will be my annual milestone too and can check what stats say about the gen estimates etc.

Mercenary Keyboard Warrior · 30 Jun 2023 at 14:15

Made my 9 I needed, 726 exceeded, so beat forecast by 200+
