The brighter start, with a bit of a kick around lunch, helped to reach 4.2 ho's today.
Need 15 ho's for target, looking at the forecast, not looking promising!!
Metcheck says not a dry day until Thursday
4kWp, SSE, SolarEdge P300 optimisers & SE3500 Inverter, in occasionally sunny Corby, Northants.

Managed almost 3.6 'O's yesterday (23rd). Bit better than the last few days.
Graph shows a sunny morning up until around 9am then just drops off with a single peak around midday but only upto 2.5kWh.Martin (With an I)

So in my first month of generation (on my 3.5kw system) I have generated 415kwhs (from 2.30pm on 23rd June to 22nd July inclusive) against a forecast from PGVIS of 367kwhs, so I have generated 113% of forecast and including the first day of partial generation I have had 9 days where I only got single digit returns in terms of kwhs.
Very happy with that for the first month and lets hope I can continue to generate at that level or more above forecast for the next 20 years.0 -
I'm sure we all hope that ! Alas, there are good months and bad months and I'm sure you'll get some of each over the next twenty years.Pulpdiction wrote: »Very happy with that for the first month and lets hope I can continue to generate at that level or more above forecast for the next 20 years.NE Derbyshire.4kWp S Facing 17.5deg slope (dormer roof).24kWh of Pylontech batteries with Lux controller BEV : Hyundai Ioniq50 -

Absolutely, but I think to some extent I've not had a great month, for June/July to have third (well 9 out of 30) of those days in single figures (with 5kwhs on 2 days) then I think the month hasn't been great. Hence I'm pretty pleased with how I've started out. But as you say I'm sure there will be good and bad months.0 -

Well at 20:13, I think that I will surrender. Just tipped an O. Avoided the sub-O embarrassment at least.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
