    An unexpectedly good yield yesterday at 3.26 O's.
    6.4kWp (16 * 400Wp REC Alpha) facing ESE + 5kW Huawei inverter + 10kWh Huawei battery. Buckinghamshire.
  • Sept has been shocking, my daily average is down to 2.70 O's.
    I'll easily make enough to cover the month as my predicted usage is only 240kw.
    Still grid free though as the battery has survived a few dull days.
    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.

    Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).
