Currently October has beaten Nov & Dec '11; January '12. Need another 17.8 kWh this month to beat Feb '12.
My install must be close to the same date as Legoman62. Currently clocked 2369.5 kWh with 39 sunny days to go..:rotfl: I too, very well happy. :beer:2.5 kWp PV system, SSW facing, 45 Deg Roof. ABB Inverter, Monitor: 'Wattson'.

hi
6.85kWh today.....0 -
Not a bad weekend's graft by the PV: 11.9kWh Saturday & 16.3kWh today. >12kWh over the two days was ImmerSUN'd into the water tank. Normal service has resumed in Cider Country: on course to beat PVGIS by 47%.
One week to anniversary of installation: total generation to date 3482kWh vs PVGIS-Classic estimate of 3200kWh per year (+8.8%). Quietly optimistic that we should surpass 3520kWh, which would be +10% for the year.Cider Country Solar PV generator: 3.7kWp Enfinity system on unshaded SE (-36deg azimuth) & 45deg roof0 -

Yes the update is interesting, I'm down a bit on you diode, the weather, location, my slight shading, system differences, who knows? Anyway it will be interesting to follow over a longer timescale.0 -
Has she got the message that just because the sun is shining, it is not yet in the 11:00 - 15:00 zone (soon to be 11:00 - 13:00 winter time table) and it is probably not a good idea to turn on dish washer, clothes washer and drier at the same time.:rotfl:
15 kWh on Sunday - even managed to turn on the immersion for an hour as the generation had got up to 2.8 kW - the days of 3+ kW at noon are definitely over for this year.0
