Hi thinking about getting a system installed but would like to know how much power is made in a month like this looking at peoples O's in the last few days is that around 1 to 2 kw a day so around £0.13 to £0.26 is that correct
The best way to work out what you are likely to generate at different times of the year is to use PVGIS
Find your location on the map by zooming in (you can usually point to your house) enter the orientation of your roof, its pitch and the size of the system and it will provide an estimate by day, month & year.
