Renewables: "talking 'bout my generation"

Sterlingtimes

Quite extraordinary and unexpected. My best day ever. 22,000/3,780 = 5.82 Os.

Hawaii + .6 O's today :beer:

Nearly there. Waited as long as I could, but the red light signified I wasn't getting any more today. 19.9KWh = 4.975 O's.

I so wanted that extra 100 to get me a nice round 20, aka an Hawaii, but alas it was not meant to be.

Hi All

Well, after a pretty grey start to the day it ended up quite decent ... good enough for a Spring walk. Ended up being the best generation day since 2nd week of July last year ...

Pretty similar here too. 26.4kWh, which gives the first 5O of the year - they are in short supply with west-facing kit. And that with about 2kWh "missing" from the smaller array given the grey start. Could have been a real cracker, not just a cracker.

I must be not too far up the coast from KevinG, and recorded 6.46 Os today, which suggests that we live somewhere that's sunnier than most of the rest of you posters. It was a completely cloudless day (though I could see mist in the Channel this morning). Pace Eric, I can see some point in comparing performance in a way that isn't obscured by considerations of system size.....

But perhaps your roof geometry is such that today could represent the best possible conditions for generation ? Or of course (as you suggest) you live in a natural suntrap ? Both of these points are ignored by the 'one method suits all' proponents of the O system !

I see the kWp postings work quite well, despite the fact that we don't live next door to each other......

And I am miles away from the South Downs; managed a good Hawaii +1.64 O's: That will do, thank you..................... Gawd, from your post above 'give it rest Eric'...:rotfl: Think you are now .......

Not my best day (overall) yesterday but a very nice 22.6kWh or a smidge over a wink.

But, the grey start helped the WNW, and the sunny finish allowed it to hit 8.6kWh, best of the year so far, and a nice 4.15 Os.

Currently projecting 105% for April with the long term forecast looking very good. I'm always a bit concerned by a dry April, hope that doesn't mean it'll rain for the rest of the year.

Mart.

Cracking start today, switched on the kettle(travel type) at 7.20am and was still exporting(nice), although looks like it may cloud over later


Pretty similar to Marts yesterday, my WNW starting to really do its thang with just under 11kWh backed up by my SSW hitting its 5th HAWAII of the month thus far....long may it continue
