Spring, finally.

It took it's sweet time coming, but spring has finally arrived in the UK.

It's still not quite right (the garden is well behind where it should be) but suddenly getting up in the morning doesn't seem so difficult - blue sky rather than dull grey cloud helps somewhat in this regard.

So the highlights of the month:

(1) passing the target with ease - 407 kWh generated vs a prediction of 311 kWh

(2) best ever single day's production on 20th April - 23.56 kWh, beating the previous record of 26th May 2012 of 23.24 kWh. On it's own this was not a memorable day, but clear skies and a good elevation angle might have squeezed out some additional watts. Who knows? Maybe we'll get a few good summer days this year (without the haze of 2012) and even better results might be observed

(3) finally seeing some separation in cumulative generation for the year

Here's hoping the nice weather continues for a little while.
