I've added some pictures of Harrison and Anton taken earlier this year. Have a look at them in the photo gallery

June was very dry and sunny and as a consequence we had our second best month for electricity generation. We generated 347.5 kwh, which is more than we used in the month.
Go to the solar panel output page for output comparisons over the past few years.
We had a smart meter fitted this month, which means that we can monitor in real-time the electricity we're using, importing, generating and exporting. The only down-side is that the meter no longer spins backwards when we're exporting back to the grid.
We've also registered with the Feed-in Tariff (FIT) scheme, although we will receive far less per kwh generated than someone installing a system now. This is understandable, as the purpose of the FIT scheme is to get more people to install renewables. Rather than 41.3p per kwh generated, we get 9p, plus 3p for what we export.

May was another good month for electricity generation from our solar panels. We generated 305.8 kwh.
