Really bad month in not-sunny Wiltshire.
Worst month so far since install of the first system in June 2013.
Only 93kWh from a target of 171kWh. :eek:
On the slightly good side, my import was only 4% up on last year...0 -

My worst ever day! since installation! :mad:
Peak production of 0.089 kW at 10:00 :rotfl:
Ended the month on 116 kWh 70.73 %
Lets hope I can repeat the 156 kWh I had last December!
On the plus side still upto 4082 kWh for 2015 :T:j:T3.795 kWp Solar PV System. Capital of the Wolds0 -
My worst day was 23 December 2013 - 113Wh, or 0.03 Os from just the 3500Wp system at that time. It was so dark we had the lights on all day, just to add insult to injury!:rotfl:0

The day's not worth a calculation. November scored 83.7 out of a 145 target PVGIS. 58%.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

My first full month at 98.49kwh which is about 70% of PVGIS. Going on an average of what we would normally use, I saved around 35kwh on elec and diverted 38kwh to the hot water.0

As I'm sure everyone else will probably find too, November was a disaster with just 80 kWh rather than the PVGIS estimate of 122.5; i.e. almost 35% below expectations.
But mustn't grumble, that's still >£40 in the piggy bank vs lost interest of just over £15. Alas, every chance that Dec & Jan will be even worse so looking forward to Feb.NE Derbyshire.4kWp S Facing 17.5deg slope (dormer roof).24kWh of Pylontech batteries with Lux controller BEV : Hyundai Ioniq50 -

75% of pvgis for us.I think....0 -
I'd call that 27% below but...silver lining is that although it has been cloudy it has also been in the top 5 warmest Novembers ever so overall energy usage (and thus cost) for most will be down enough to more than make up for the solar shortfall financially.
