    Being new to monitoring... when is the best time of the year generation wise ? 
    The predictions all show June and July as the best months, although in practice a good April or May can beat them.

    My peak monthly generation has usually been May, with the highest daily figures always in May. May 2020 was just ridiculous!
    2kWp Solar PV - 10*200W Kioto, SMA Sunny Boy 2000HF, SSE facing, some shading in winter, 37° pitch, installed Jun-2011, inverter replaced Sep-2017 AND Feb-2022.
