    Not a pretty "bell curve" here at the Centre of England:

    https://enlighten.enphaseenergy.com/pv/public_systems/2y7S502614/legacy/grid/hours

    Still, achieved 25 kWh >>> 6.61 Os.

    Generated 25.45 kWh according to Mr Dear Wattson but accidentally exported 3.48 kWh. I've had a word with the family about that.
    I have osteoarthritis in my hands so I speak my messages into a microphone using Dragon. Some people make "typos" but I often make "speakos".

    I got 20.6kwh today and 20.2kwh yesterday BUT I am a little dissapointed that mid summer I should be getting 25-30kwh . My highest of the year so far was in april 26 where I acheived 24.2kwh. Is this normal? Is this caused by hotter panels, mistier air, by the sun getting too high in the sky by midday.

    I have a 3kwh ESE system(120 degrees)
    And 1kwh SES( 210 degrees)

    Should the best solar generation always occur in June?

    we got another MAIDEN yesterday + .73 (Chimney removal ?????)


    Since install in 2012 we have always been below our estimated figures. But, it looks as though removing the chimney has made a difference!! Never got to 15kw and over ever until this year!! Removed Chimney last July!!!
