Mixed gen this wek, some great, some terrible. Month end projection now 86%. Still on to hit a grand total of 50MWh, but only by 9kWh, so this month or next. Time flies.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.

Some numbers are in. My 1 year generation since I took an interest in monitoring it is 1978kWh. I don't think this is too bad for a 2.025kW system installed in 2011 in a location which suffers from shading in the morning. The original documentation optimistically estimated 1738kWh annual production (due to presence of a tree which is no longer there). I would, I believe, expect a 6% panel degradation by now.Central Beds, 2.02kWp (9 x 225W) south facing with some morning shade, installed 2011 (£7.16/Wp). Tigo monitoring/optimisers on all panels, Growatt MIC 2000 TL-X Inverter and Solar iBoost installed 2022. (4 x 415W + 6 x 405W garden experiment connected to SunSynk 3.6 hybrid inverter & 2 x 5.3kWh SynSynk batteries) (4 x 405W panels queued to go somewhere)2
