Yesterday we produced 1.9 O's, this will be our first winter with solar and it's already depressing numbers haha. I am really going to miss the funds from exporting.
On a positive, the battery was fully charged and kept us through the night.16 x 410w (6.6kw) Sharp panels, 5kw inverter and 6.5kw battery installed in May 2023.3 -
First winter, hmm, you're in for a treat. You may get a full zero day if the sky is black enough. My E/W configuration makes it worse, in Dec the sun at midday, can actually hide from both roofs, it's so low - now that's just cruel.llewdiskram said:Yesterday we produced 1.9 O's, this will be our first winter with solar and it's already depressing numbers haha.
