Bullseye!
Yesterday's yield (for me was) 13.98 kWhr against a predicted 14, although they have generally been so far off that I haven't been bothering with the decimals recently.
The closest I have had before (and an exceptionally good day too) was June 4th, 21.85 vs 22.9 predicted. Apart from a couple of days earlier this month I think the forecasts are still pretty inaccurate.

Had a quick check and we used 22.47kWh at the house yesterday (HWT & SH's mostly). That's £1.235 excl standing charge. WT1 generated £3.26 for us and 30p in FIT on the PV. I am definitely having to adjust my expectation upward of what to expect in shoulder months. Oct is no longer a shoulder month financially. :) We have also passed into annual PB territory for the Solaredge system. A few more trees to prune on return to get some more early morning action going. 🎬

Has anybody had either the secure access link, or the accounts that we are expected to approve in two days time yet? I haven't had any response from Ripple. Very poor!

And don't forget if your attending both AGMs, there are two separate invitation's to accept.

Embarrassingly I only accepted WT1 and forgot about WT2. :oops:

Now sorted. :D

I hope you'll let us know highlights (PROJECT3) for those off the gmt and on the piss!

I noticed that the community tag is no longer present in the drop down box?

Edit, from Ripple moments ago
'We are hoping to announce more information on project 3 later this year with the share offer to follow shortly afterwards'

Later this year.... :roll:

I received the link for the Kirk Hill AGM including the accounts at around 1pm today so I expect the Graig Fatha ones to come at a similar time tomorrow.

Thanks for the reply. I finally had a response from Ripple support earlier today that said: "I have spoken to the relevant team today and they are looking to send out the link and all relevant information early this afternoon. I am sorry for the delay it has taken to get this to you."

But I haven't seen anything yet, and it's gone early afternoon, so I'm a bit concerned again. Their communication seems to be very poor!
