Just about to hit 9.5, lost an hours data earlier as my internet went down for some odd reason.

So 10.3 for the day…….already beaten target of 432, but hoping to get past last years 510.

Last me we had 17 sunny days according to pvoutput (above 18kwhs for 3.2kw system) this may so far 9 have been classed as sunny (24kwhs for a 4.8kw system).

Kent, much sunnier than Scotland
Had an email from Loop tonight:

Solar makes loads of sense anyway, but did you know that where you live in the country makes a difference? It's down to "solar irradiance" or the strength of the sun in your area and it has a big impact. A solar installation in the CT postcode area for example will generate up to 30% more than the same system in the North of Scotland!
Next up, how long do you think solar panels would take to pay for themselves? Fifteen years? Longer? How about less than seven, thanks to keen pricing and the persistent high price of energy.

This is one of the shortest solar payback periods we've ever seen.
