Early finish as not likely to see any more generation tonight. Decent morning but poor afternoon. East roof 3.6 Os, west 1.9 Os for a combined 2.7 Os. Today and month to date both 76% of PVGIS.
Question: my east inverter tends to sit for an hour or so at close of business at a steady 32 watts and the west at 37 watts but the generation meter doesn’t move. Later after dark they drop to about half that before going off line. What is going on?Northern Lincolnshire. 7.8 kWp system, (4.2 kWwest facing panels , 3.6 kWeast facing), Solis inverters installed 2018, 5kW SSE facing system (shaded in afternoon) added in 2025 with Tesla PW3 battery, Mitsubishi SRK35ZS-S and SRK20ZS-S Wall Mounted A2A Heat Pumps, ex Nissan Leaf owner.0 -

Mine does very similar, I put it down to the fact that the GM needs more than 50 watts to get off its backside..:rotfl::rotfl:Question: my east inverter tends to sit for an hour or so at close of business at a steady 32 watts and the west at 37 watts but the generation meter doesn’t move.
