  • 6.8kWh yesterday, bringing the Jan total up to 115.7kW versus PVGIS-Classic estimate of 108kWh, so beat the target by a tad over 7%. Not quite as good as jackieblack but certainly can't complain. I'm very thankful we don't have any winter shading at all, snow notwithstanding!

    5.75kWh today, just shy of the 5.95kWh needed on average for the February PVGIS-Classic target.

    What can I tell you about today's generation. So strange. never had anything like it. According to app I use and sunny explorer to download data. usually the app and sunny Explorer are out anything from 1-5w from generation meter.

    The app and sunny Explorer States the panels generated 6.57kwh. But if I use the generation meter data it States I generated 10.82 kwh today.. so you lot decide what the generation is today lol

    Not sure about the rest of the month yet but it was certainly first of two similar days.

    Generation only just finished for the day giving a total of 9,594 kWh - or more than 50% better than yesterday. Of course, at this time of year every day has potential to be better than previous one but if this trend continues I could get to the month's PVGIS forecast in the first week and the year's total well before the end of the month (except that panels would melt !).

    12.52 kWh today, clear blue sky all day. Timers were set for the apppliances so that I could go out! We are on economy 7 as we are all electric so instead of using the cheaper night time electric for the dish washer, immersion etc we used the free stuff. So pleased I just keep on smiling :)
