Already virtually dark here and not a single milliwatt generated all day, my first zero for a long time, what a way to end the year. On a more positive note it's my second best year ever after 2020, my second best final quarter after 2018 and about my third best December.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-2022.5

No production here today due to my recurring fault. Fine drizzly rain and mist. All cause the fault to appear. Not that the system would have produced more than around 400 watts all day anyway!
Ended the month on 121 kWh (102% of PVGIS) 5th best December out of 9
Best year ever. 4.392 MWh (121% of PVGIS) (132.3 % of MCS Certificate)
Happy New Year to all and lets hope 2023 is just as good for PV.

Finished the year with an abysmal 0.14 O's resulting in a 97% PVGIS for December. If it hadn't been for the snow covering for several sunny days, it would have been considerably higher.Still managed 106% of PVGIS for the year, despite installation at the beginning of February.6.4kWp (16 * 400Wp REC Alpha) facing ESE + 5kW Huawei inverter + 10kWh Huawei battery.

0.19 O here so little to shout about although December returned 107% compared to pvgis, with the year at 98% due in no small way to the Inverter going awol for six weeks in Aug/Sept, circa 1258 kWh's, equating to 13.8%.
