Do not despair, things can only getter better; trust me, I have a new Anorak...2.5 kWp PV system, SSW facing, 45 Deg Roof. ABB Inverter, Monitor: 'Wattson'.
Reg. for FIT Nov 2011. "It's not what you generate; it's how you use it that matters". One very clean Vauxhall Diesel Sri, £30.00 Road Tax:

12.2 kWh today eventually.
With a good day forecast tomorrow , very surprisingly I'll be only a handful of units short of climate forecast.

Same here...Sunny, then sky went black at 14.00 and had lots of rain.
Sun popped out after an hour, so 5.26kWh for the day:D16 Sanyo Hit 250s.4kWp SMA 3.8kWp inverter. SW roof. 28° pitch. Minimal shade. Nov 2011 install. Hybrid car. Ripple Kirk Hill. N.E Lincs Coast.0 -
1.4kWh yesterday but 10.1kWh today, so a nice surprise when I got back from the big smoke this evening. 108.9kWh generated in Jan now, just pipping the 108kWh PVGIS Classic estimate with a day to go.Cider Country Solar PV generator: 3.7kWp Enfinity system on unshaded SE (-36deg azimuth) & 45deg roof0

And you thought yours was bad Shafeeq. We got 1.78Kwh. We have generated about a third of PVGIS target for month of January.
That's what we get for living in a rainforest!!!!! Nices views though!!!!:rotfl:

Edwink of you put it this way then my system did good.
It's case of is glass half full or half empty.0 -
Good 8.3kWh day yesterday get us within 4.5kWh of PVGIS classic (no chance of the extra 10 to get climate!). Some sunny spells forecast for today which might get us there - whether we can get the 8.6kWh needed to beat December is also doubtful!
Have a good day folks and lets hope Feb is nice and sunny - there can't be anything left in the sky to fall surely!Adventure before Dementia!0 -
January generation has been well below both the Climate-SAF PVGIS prediction and the equivalent 2012 generation, but only just short of 2011.
January 2013 solar generation was 66.67% of Climate-SAF PVGIS
January 2013 solar generation was 66.67% of January 2012
January 2013 solar generation was 94.12% of January 2011
