So the latest from the meter under the stairs. Five megawatt hours of production have now been logged since the system was installed.
That's an awful lot of (energy efficient) lightbulbs run for free. With a good summer (unlikely, the way things are going) we could well exit the year close to 8 mWh. Well, maybe 7 (fingers crossed).

May 2013
So that was May.
It started nicely enough with some really nice weather (just in time for the bank holiday) and finished in a similar manner for the final bank holiday, but there was some real grey days in between. The weather this year has been odd to say the least - too cold, too wet and too grey - you can see this in the garden (everything is a few weeks later than usual), and in nature (fishing is very slow this year) and it even seems to be effecting some people (a sort of SAD if you like).
Output wise, too many mid-single figure days diluted down the good days and led to a good performance (112% of predicted output) but one that should have been better. Still, I supposed I shouldn't complain - another month done a dusted and another target beaten, however output was lower than April 2013, which indicates just how mixed the weather has been.
Let us hope that the good start to early June carries on through the rest of the month.
