    1 year anniversary tomorrow, 4071 kWh generated in one year.
    How does that compare?.

    That's excellent, especially given the relatively poor last 12 month period.

    I've just checked my 1-11-15 to 31-10-16 total for a comparison and got 4,238.2kWh's

    Which is lower than all of my complete years (with both systems):-
    2013 - 4,413
    2014 - 4,603
    2015 - 4,489

    Not scientific, but it suggests you will get much better years. So a great start that may get better.
    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.
