A lot better than expected for yesterday, just over 4 O's
Now at just under 20% of the PVGIS estimate of 466kWh for June.0 -
Just a quickie, and gen is bouncing all over the place, but each time it briefly settles down, it seems to be sustaining 4.2kW which is pretty much my sustained max (spikes to 4.9kW).
Doesn't mean today (kWh) will be a monster as the weather is so mixed, but I think this is my first maxing (kW) of the year.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.
For general PV advice please see the PV FAQ thread on the Green & Ethical Board.0 -
