Best day of the year for the 2nd day on the run.
A near perfect copy of yesterdays production. At certain points in the day production was identical to yesterday.
Maiden + 0.82 O's
Put me back ahead of PVGIS by 1.5 days
So the panels were 9 years old today. Looking at the roof they look a tad dirty!
I spent around 90 minutes slaving away at the BBQ, which gave me a superb view of the roof and the panels for once in the 9 years. I watched the shadow creep across the roof from the neighbours house. At one point their TV Arial crossed 5 panels.
So glad I went with SolarEdge and optimizers. It has certainly been a worthwhile investment.
