August is over, time to look at the statistics. We used much electricity in August, more than 80kWh, and I know exactly why. Every day the weather was good enough, I cycled to work (22 km) and that’s why I washed my clothes more often. The solar panels performed very well, producing 142,2kWh, because August was a very sunny month with about 20% more sun hours than the long-term average. De production of the 100Wp solar awning lagged behind because at spent two weeks indoors due to painting works. The surplus over August was 62,2 kWh, which we fed back into the grid. Both natural gas and water consumption both were a bit higher than average, I showered a lot more because of all the cycling, and also the water consumption was increased because the washing machine was run more often. There were relatively few website visitors in August, mainly because I wrote few new posts because I am very busy at work. I hope to be able to write a bit more in the near future, especially for the World Solar Challenge pagina page.
