8 April

Lithgow has had some very wintry days already this autumn, dark and wet. A good test for the solar. The last two days a good example. On both days the solar produced easily enough to run heating, washing, clothes dryer, dishwasher, fridges, stove, lights, TVs etc. And it re-charged the battery for overnight use. There was still, after all that, plenty left to export back to the grid as well. That’s what the graphs show, significant surplus every day, back to the grid. Enough to power a small home. It might have powered yours. Cost to us - better than zero. We made money.
