Renewables: "talking 'bout my generation"

You would have to give them the figure in kWp..which you have always argued is a waste of time, the only real comparison that you could make is perhaps your next door neighbour, assuming he/she has the same orientation, pitch, etc etc. Don't waste your time, okay it would cost them money to argue it, but then, they would pass that cost on to the rest of us.......:eek:I'd really like to have a go at claiming for my lost income (not hopeful but at least it will cost them a bit to tell me hard luck
). Is there anyone reasonably local to me who could share their daily figures for Mon, Tues & (later of course) Wed with me so that I can demonstrate a correlation for Mon & Wed then calculate my losses for today ?
Better day today 2.56 O's....

PS. Perhaps they would argue; your lost income was made up from your gain in not being charged for any electric you used, just a second thought..HTH..:cool:2.5 kWp PV system, SSW facing, 45 Deg Roof. ABB Inverter, Monitor: 'Wattson'.

The kWp figure refers only to the potential to generate; my losses need to be expressed in kWh.NE Derbyshire.4kWp S Facing 17.5deg slope (dormer roof).24kWh of Pylontech batteries with Lux controller BEV : Hyundai Ioniq50 -
Many thanks. Happy to wait for the Wed figureIs it really worth it Eric?
If it helps though, my combined ESE & SSW(4kWp total) generated 10.5kWh yesterday and 10kWh today. Don't have a crystal ball handy so you'll have to wait for Wednesdays. but your Tues one was pretty close to mine and I'd have guessed that we had a spectacularly better Wed morning here than Tuesday's - albeit followed by a poor afternoon so a similar total sounds about right.

Okay, but you did save, as you had no electric supply to use, so you must have had a cheaper day than normal.....:rotfl:..:rotfl:..
