    Been AWAL for the last 2 days. My total generation to include from Fri - Sunday evening was 37.3 kWh. I have calculated as a guesstimate Friday-9.9; Saturday-10.9 and todays exact total was :j 16.5kW. :rotfl:

    Does your inverter not give a history? Even my primitive one has a 30-day history. It doesn't exactly match the generation meter but under-reads by a consistently small amount, so it is easy to come up with pretty accurate daily figures.

    My inverter only shows the current day, I do have a desktop monitor but that is being replaced at the moment. :mad: My inverter always over estimates from what the gen meter shows.

    14.8kWh for me today:mad: need to average 6.6kWh per day for the rest of the month to just exceed my estimated PVGIS for June. Could be done.:j

    18.25 kWh here

    314 kWh in June vs the pvgis prediction of 432 kWh. 5 more days at 24 kWh/day would do that nicely (but not banking on it :D )

    But even if I don't see the sun again this month, I'll have earned almost 5 times as much as the ISA interest I've 'sacrificed' - so no tears here.
