Day yield : 223Wh
Month to date : 223 Wh
I think that's probably the worst day ever ! Of course power was off all day and that 223Wh has been generated since 7pm. And I did get unmetered electricity until then.
Fairly confident tomorrow will be better :TNE Derbyshire.4kWp S Facing 17.5deg slope (dormer roof).24kWh of Pylontech batteries with Lux controller BEV : Hyundai Ioniq50 -
I really am not prepared to go into the Top & Bottom of it all...
Suffice to say 6.4 O's today; 1st. day of this month and I hear we are going to have the same for the next 30 days; if not, I am going to Sue around the corner........ :rotfl:

Have you moved recently ?
Whatever the forecasters have told you, there's absolutely no chance of anyone in the UK getting the same sort of weather for 30 consecutive days !
Possibly parts of Arabian Peninsula or maybe even N Africa might offer that.NE Derbyshire.4kWp S Facing 17.5deg slope (dormer roof).24kWh of Pylontech batteries with Lux controller BEV : Hyundai Ioniq50 -
July PVGIS-Classic: 417kWh
July 2013: 561kWh (+35.5% vs PVGIS), new record month :beer:
July 2012: 432kWh (+3.6% vs PVGIS), now 5th best month
Only March 2012 beats July 2013 in comparison with PVGIS, which had a 42.6% out-performance.Cider Country Solar PV generator: 3.7kWp Enfinity system on unshaded SE (-36deg azimuth) & 45deg roof0 -
Steady 17kWh for the first day of the new month. Looks like you "lost" between 17-19kWh yesterday Eric. At least you can console yourself with the free leccy they gave you. Chance to use every appliance without the need to "check if your generating enough":rotfl:2 kWp SEbE , 2kWp SSW & 2.5kWp NWbW.....in sunny North Derbyshire17.7kWh Givenergy battery added(for the power hungry kids)0
