Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).
According to 'normal' maths, 72kWh vivided by 2.5 kWp would be 28.8 !NE Derbyshire.4kWp S Facing 17.5deg slope (dormer roof).24kWh of Pylontech batteries with Lux controller BEV : Hyundai Ioniq50 -
If the chap who invented the O doesn't understand it, what hope has anyone else got ?
The O may not have been invented here. It is graphed at pvout.org

There they call it "efficiency kWh/kW).
The term O I think is attributable to this board.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".0 -

Only 2.94 O's. I can only get spot readings from the Smart Meter without a Smart Hub. But over three days IMPORT of 20.0 kWh and EXPORT of 14.3 kWh are not too far off Wattson. We have exported a little too much over the last three days.I have osteoarthritis in my hands so I speak my messages into a microphone using Dragon.
