August results.
Average month with 97% of target. Wide spread, with 93% for the ESE and 110% for the WNW.
Generated 794kWh (91.0 O's).
Imported 180kWh.
Exported 408kWh.
Total consumption 566kWh.
Gas was ~99kWh. [DHW & oven.]
Consumption reasonable. BEV charging was mostly done with PV till late in the month. GCH is off.
Middling Aug result , seen much better, and also some worse.
Currently projecting 91% for the year, which would 'smash' our worst year 2017 which was 99%.
[Issues continue with upgraded system. Now awaiting Solaredge technician for site visit as batts still refuse to chat with inverter. Looks like it's the batts afterall. Almost no storage in August, hence high import figure.]
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.
For general PV advice please see the PV FAQ thread on the Green & Ethical Board.5 -
