OTOH, on the downhill side of the Summer Solstice every day is just a bit shorter than previous one so you need to be at more than 50% of PVGIS at middle of month if you want to be at 100% by end.NE Derbyshire.4kWp S Facing 17.5deg slope (dormer roof).24kWh of Pylontech batteries with Lux controller BEV : Hyundai Ioniq50 -

Hiya T. Nothing spectacular here, but has been ticking along a bit above target all month. Now predicting 111% (if rest of month average*), so a very nice first half of September so far.
*My spreadsheet has average guestimates for each day, which I overwrite with actuals. The guestimates take some account of in-month changes, for instance 1/9 estimates 15kWh and steadily slides down to 30/9 estimated at 10kWh.
Mart.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.

Nice. I need to try and target my spreadsheet to do this, it's complicated though - you don't really know what you want at the beginning/end, unless you assume that June and December are flat, and then you can interpolate between them...Martyn1981 wrote: »*My spreadsheet has average guestimates for each day, which I overwrite with actuals.
