Hi,
Just a quick question - can you confirm that the household consumption figures published are net ie electricity imported (to household) less any household export from solar for example? Thanks

They are exclusive of any injection/generation. ie It is based just on the amount imported (to the household).
We have little visibility behind the meter, and so can't make any sensible assumptions about how much has been generated, stored, and/or consumed there.
We get an idea of any surplus exported back into the network, but this is ignored for calculating consumption.
