Just thrown together really, I'll fashion something nicer at a later date.

That seems a popular type of energy Dashboard, I follow one like it for our national energy:

Energy Dashboard - real time and historical GB electricity data, carbon emissions and UK generation sites mapping

Live and historical GB National Grid electricity data, showing generation, demand and carbon emissions and UK generation sites mapping with API subscription service.

Very interesting - I suppose research into making the panels last longer doesn't really make sense, since research into more efficient panels makes them obsolete.

So the research focus should go into manufacturing panels with less difficult to recycle materials, that also impact CO2 generation, either by producing or recycling them.

I'm interested in making them easier to recycle in the first place, like so many things the core problem is plastic which besides being tough isn't really recyclable.

So on Wednesday our Tesla PW2 got its 5kW upgrade, it wasn't as simple as the guy hoped since it couldn't be done remotely because of GDPR reasons and while here he had to call Tesla multiple times because apparently since the release of PW3 it has become harder/buggy to change some of the settings of the PW2 due to integrating the PW3.
