October results.
Month was OK(ish), with 94% of target. Big spread, with 91% for the ESE/SSW* and 111% for the WNW.
Year end projection ~102% of target.[*2.1kWp SSW ground mount is steep pitched for winter, and sits between a large tree to the SE and the house to the SW, so will incurr some shading throughout Apr-Sep. The rest of the PV is roof mounted, ESE & WNW, and receives some shading, but all PV is Solaredge to minimise shading losses.]
Generated 390kWh (44.70 O's).
Imported 606kWh. [Roughly 98% cheap rate]
Exported 306kWh.
Total consumption 690kWh. [House and transport now fully electric. DHW 66kWh]
Estimated leccy bill for the year, at current rates, is ~£832. Estimated export income, is ~£720. Nice.
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.
