The sums include what the superseded registration earned before its handover. The old and new codes were never active at the same time, so nothing above is counted twice.

Income per kilowatt across the whole site: £35.35/kW/yr on the three measured lines, before charging costs and before wholesale trading, which nobody publishes. Each unit's own page carries its estimate and its percentiles.
