yes, please keep up the reports over the next twelve months.
I monitor solar radiation as part of my meteorological duties and will 
be interested to see how things fare over the winter when radiation 
can be about 1/5th what it is now - although the theoretical reduction 
is about half. I suspect this is because of the increased, and 
thicker, cloud we often get in winter.

I also suspect that the solar panels do NOT give a linear response (ie 
doubling the radiation does NOT double the output from the panels - 
but is either more or less)
