18.26 kWh Produced
December 2023 may well be the gloomiesit month on record. Total production was just 18kWh a pitiful amount of power. Most of that was on Dec 8th, the only bright spot for the month.
The month was wet, grey and most likely above average temperatures.
Solar production to date 2023:
Shows the dismal March and the more respectable May and June data with July producing only a few kWh more than April and August just a few more kWh that July. September was reasonably sunny and contributed 360 kWh. October and November less so as the sun sets earlier. December produced no significant sunlight.

Switched to new Octopus Tariff
As our existing Octopus Go tariff expires in August we made the switch to Octopus Intelligent.
This is a replacement for Go and available to EV owners. With this rate Octopus talk to your car and determines a charge plan each night. You need to configure your car with the Octopus app and set charge levels and time of departure. So far this seems to work reasonably well. Full report to follow.
