    My system generated 177 kWh during the month which exceeded the PVGIS Climate estimation of 158 kWh for June, but failed to beat last years record.

    June 2011 - 170 kWh
    June 2012 - 138 kWh
    June 2013 - 164 kWh
    June 2014 - 182 kWh
    June 2015 - 177 kWh

    I will have to check whether it's a record. 24,200 Wh / 3,780 Wp >>> 6.40 O's.

    The month's generation of 510 kWh compares with a PVGIS target of 415 kWh, i.e. 123%.

    P.S. No, 7 June was my record at 26 kWh 6.88 Os.

    Evening chaps, havent been on for a while, loads going on here.

    Pleased to report first full month turned out 526kWh

    Really pleased with that, 4kW array with a 45degree tilt and boiler has been off all month. I'm yet to work out the electricity usage but its somewhere between 50% and 70% less than what we use in the summer months.

    Today turned out 6.02 Os - still didn't get my perfect bell curve. Damm light cloud around lunch time, right when i shoot for the big numbers.

    However, the temperature today was scorching, inverter temp was mainly between 44c and 55c today so some efficiency lost there.
