Lovely and sunny most of the day but I was at Dad's in Bridlington.
Here at home it seems it was mostly cloudy with a few very short bursts of sunshine, so only 3.43 O's.
Already 8kWh over June PVGIS so I'm feeling like

That’s interesting but how did you generate 1 kWh after 9.56 pm? Does your inverter reporting system take a while to catch up? Even so that’s a big hike. I have some WSW facing panels and they stop generating about 9pm. My inverter may show 30w or so after this but I’m not convinced that is true generation.Grandad2b said:
But that's now 18kWh and 4.05 O's. Maybe I shouldn't be so hasty.Grandad2b said:17kWh, 3.83 O's
Passed June PVGIS total.Here is an example from earlier in the month (of my combined East and West roofs) where it was a clear evening. Actual generation was from around 4.45 to 9pm. The inverter is reporting generation for another hour or so.
Edit: I am not suggesting this applies to your system but you may find this thread interesting. You will see from that others report issues with their solar apparently generating when it is dark. https://myenergi.info/solar-delivering-always-100w-even-at-night-time-t4894-s10.htmlNorthern Lincolnshire. 7.8 kWp system, (4.2 kw west facing panels , 3.6 kw east facing), Solis inverters, Solar IBoost water heater, Mitsubishi SRK35ZS-S and SRK20ZS-S Wall Mounted Inverter Heat Pumps, ex Nissan Leaf owner)1 -
