Renewables: "talking 'bout my generation"

Martyn1981

616kWh, 110 O's and 103% of May target, so finally got that plus month warm and fuzzy feeling for 2017. 89kWh imported.

Hawaii + .56 Yesterday...

For the first time I will be noting down my gen figures in an orderly fashion rather than scrawled on any old scrap of paper that happens to be at hand. Hence at the month end I shall report back with generation figures against forecast just like the rest of you relatively organised lot do

For the month of May achieved 95%. 522 vs target of 549. Now thinking of going down the ASHP route to use up the export (combi boiler situation )Will seek inspiration from M, Z & ASB from the other thread.

PVGIS estimate for May was 463kWh, achieved 478.48kWh, so 103.3% or 119.62 O's
Import, same as last May at 94kWh.
Gas 12kWh instead of 97kWh, so over 87% reduction and lovely to have the cooling from the ASHP, during the short heat wave last week :rotfl:
Not expecting to use any gas now until mid October, as all water heating, since mid March, has been provided by diverted solar power.

A good end to the month yesterday, 6.44 O's, a MAIDEN, which helped me hit PVGIS figure of 483 kWh, with a total generated of 501 kWh. :beer:

Which PVGIS forecast figure are you using ?

There are at least 3 different versions. The simple ones can easily make that sort of 'error' (it's not really an error just a difference) whereas the 'revised climate model' is usually more reliable.

But if you're getting more than you think PVGIS are predicting, you've no real problem: you obviously haven't got a malfunction in your system.

|Thanks Eric - It is a good problem I accept.

I will take a look at the PVGIS stats again.

If only I was on the good rates of FIT rather than the precipice rates - it might be more of an issue!
