Went down to Stowmarket on Friday, coming back late yesterday so missed the benefit of 2 excellent days.
Friday 4th Hawaii + 0.987 O's (Perfect Bell Curve)
Saturday 5th Maiden + 0.13 O's (Curve looks like a cross section of the Alps!)
Production definitely helped by a cold wind from the North East.3.795 kWp Solar PV System. Capital of the Wolds6 -

Highest gen ever yesterday with 42kWh, and 4.81 O's, thanks to upgraded system. In fact, the ESE & SSW alone beat my highest ever of ~33kWh's with 35kWh.
But WOW the temps are low in the mornings. Having to wear a winter coat to take doggo's for a walk. Forecast suggests lows of 3C to 5C for the next week, but great for cold panel generation, and highs of as much as 18C in the afternoon.Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 28kWh 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 -
