@TimWardCam @ericsfraga @kate I know that my #solar system (3.04 kWp) has had about 70% to #grid and 30% direct use over the 12.5 years it is now in operation. From what I hear from others the 30% #DirectUse is a pretty common figure. The feed in (70%) has been measured and a guestimate would say that direct use is around 40% of the feed-in.
