Sunniest day so far this year :j 16 units today and its still sunny !0

14.8kWh here and the panels only just powered down (despite being SSE facing). Best day since 22nd October (15.7kWh) which was the day after the installation. Haven't seen a cloud all day and there was barely any morning haze unlike yesterday (when they still made 11kWh). Even better considering the winter solstice was only 43 days ago, whereas the 22nd October was 2 months before it.

My head hurts!
Our total is 111 Kw produced (since 12 Dec) ... 2.7 system, just over 30 degree pitch and SW position.
Does that sound about right?
We have had some gorgeous sunny days and some horrible grey ones. I find myself out somewhere and the sun comes out and I'm wanting to hurry home and use the dishwasher or something.:rotfl:0 -
