i am having my 4kw system installed in 2 weeks.
I have a 35 degree roof, exactly south facing with no shade.
What can i realisticly expect to generate per day?.
I am reading some dissapointing figures on here.
Does anyone have a daily list of figures over a year?.
Hiya. Have a play with PVGIS, there's a walkthrough in section 5 of the PV FAQ's.
This will give you a very good idea of what to expect each month and each year. So far over 4 years, I have been between 84% and 131% of monthly estimates, and between 99% and 108% of annual targets.
BTW daily figures might be misleading, they could vary from zero, to perhaps triple an average figure for that day, depending on weather. I've had horrific days due to snow covering panels, or amazing days, due to snow clearing, sun shining, and everything being white and reflective, so don't be too concerned about single days.
Mart.Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 20kWh battery storage. Two A2A units for cleaner heating. Two BEV's for cleaner driving.
For general PV advice please see the PV FAQ thread on the Green & Ethical Board.0 -

The red light is on for the end of October 190 kWh / 223 kWh = 85 % PVGIS.
Today, 2 Os exactly, and one of the better days of October.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 -
