Damn, beat me, 1 unit of gas and 66kWh of electricity for me.4kWp, South facing, 16 x phono solar panels, Solis inverter, Lincolnshire.0 -
2.75 O's today. Last week has not been very good. A week ago was looking at 105%, but ended the month on 99.98%. So close. Just glad in % terms it was much better then June, as both Months I have a similar target.3.99KW SunEdison (14 * 285W), Solis inverter, iBoost, Herts, roughly SW facing0

624.6kWh, 106% of target. Not a bad July, not a good July, previous years range from 602-775.
Import was 74kWh.
Annual prediction 101%.
It's all good. :cool2:
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.

112% for me. Generated 468, estimate was 419. Can`t complain.
Imported 197....I thought that was pretty good til I read other responses on here! 3.975 kWp System, South facing, 21 degree pitch, 15 x Canadian Solar Elps, Samil Inverter, location NE Scotland (Fraserburgh) Bring on the Sun :beer:0 -
563/463 kWh of PVGIS
My dodgy maths makes that more than 20% over target. :T :beer: 16 Panel (250W JASolar) 4kWp, facing 170 degrees, 40 degree slope, Solis Inverter. Installed 29/9/2015 - £4700 (Norfolk Solar Together Scheme); 9.6kWh US2000C Pylontech batteries + Solis Inverter installed 12/4/2022 Year target (PVGIS-CMSAF) = 3880kWh - Installer estimate 3452 kWh:Average over 6 years = 4400 :j0 -
101.5% against July target. 557 kwh generated, just over the target of 549 kwh.
12% down on July 2015.
Got some work to do on the Import side, 201 kwh Imported during July.Bury - 4.96kWp system
16 x Canadian Solar 310w Poly panels, Samil 4500TL-D Inverter, Direct South Facing , Installed May 20150 -
July totals for me:
Generated 519.3kWh v PVGIS 457kWh = 113.6%
Imported 311.8kWh v July 2015 (pre-install) 503kWh = 38% saving
Looks like I need to look at ways of making better use of my generation, although with both of us out working all day and children that are basically nocturnal during the summer, I suspect it's going to be tricky....:o4kW 8.33 Eternity (2.5kW SSE 1.5kW WSW). Glinton, Cambridgeshire.0 -
That's a lots of electricity usage for July, do you have gas?4kWp, South facing, 16 x phono solar panels, Solis inverter, Lincolnshire.0

I don`t think that usage is overly bad, mine isn`t a million miles away. And as they say they`ve got kids so the house is probably occupied the majority of the time.3.975 kWp System, South facing, 21 degree pitch, 15 x Canadian Solar Elps, Samil Inverter, location NE Scotland (Fraserburgh) Bring on the Sun :beer:0
