Back to reality today, 0.39 O's.

Today is my first day that:
I get my first free kettle boil, with 3.05KW of solar recorded at 11:25am this morning
I get more than 1 O.
So I've got 10.53kWh generated, equating to 1.17 O's. It was a reference sunny day, no clouds at all, on a partially shaded site. For comparison, 22nd December was also a reference sunny day and that generated only 5.5kWh. What a difference one month makes!
Feeling very very chuffed, but sadly it wasn't a dishwasher or washing machine day, so most got exported.
Overall I've got 86.17kWh generated in January so far. Tomorrow and Monday should also be reference sunny days as well. Looking forward to it!8.9kw solar. 12 panels ESE, 16 panels SSW. JA solar 320watt smart panels. Solar Edge 8KW HD wave inverter. Located Aberdeenshire3 -

Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).5 -
Got another O+ 1.33 to be precise(ish) (can you be precise(ish)?)
Month end now predicting 103%, so a gentle 'nothing to see here' start to 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.

Woke up to snow covered panels, so just 0.039 O today, after clearing some snow off some of the panels.A couple of weeks ago I ordered a 6m telescopic pole saw, for a bit of tree pruning, but they delivered a 6m telescopic window cleaning brush by mistake. Pole saw now received, but they said I could keep the brush
Came in useful today.Shows an advantage of having SolarEdge optimisers, as without them would not have got any generation today.
