    4.06 today which seems low but apparently the weather was totally different 14 mile from where I was all day.

    Didn't install until the 9th June but I've only got 183kW needed to hit PVGIS so I'll be pretty close looking at the forecast.


    4.3kwp JA panels, Huawei 3.68kw Hybrid inverter, Huawei 10kw Lunar 2000 battery, Myenergi eddi, South facing array with a 15 degree roof pitch, winter shade.

    13.7 kWh here in Bath. Not sure exactly how many O's that is as I should have 4.8 kWp panels with an inverter capped at 3.68 kW. But I'm not totally convinced they are the 400W Hyundai panels I was quoted for. Or even that they have applied any limit to the Growatt SPH5000 inverter as the display and manual suggests it's set to the G59 standard, which was the old version of G99...

    Assuming 13.7/4.8 = 2.85 O's.

    76.1 kWh generated since around 15:00 on 21 June.

    Had the scaffold removed yesterday afternoon so hoping to see a little more from the panels in the morning and afternoon without the poles shading things.
    This morning at 8am it was already hitting 2kW where the best I'd had was 1.2kW so a good start.
