3 years today since we had panels installed.
Total we've produced is 9588kWh. It would have been higher but lost nearly 2 weeks peak summer generation with an inverter fault when we were away.
Pretty impressed with what they've done so far.Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.0 -
The sun was actually in East Yorkshire today. How do I know because at 12:45 today I was generating 2.676Kws
did not last for long....LOL
Total generated..........wait for it.............0.72 O's!!!

Being a fledgeling P.V'er, (is it okay to say that? As it almost reads like something else
) this is all a learning curve for me but it is very interesting and wholy worthwhile to use this thread as a local, Legoman62 in my instance and national (everyone else) comparison to get an idea if everything is doing its thing taking into account all given variables.
Anyway enough waffling.... errrr 0.77 O's today.....4kw PV fitted 4th July 2014 (Green Energy NW £5600). WSW facing, 30 deg Pitch, Unshaded, Samil Solar River inverter, 16 Solar World Mono panels, Iboost on Immersion Heater. located in mid Lincolnshire.0 -

I was in Spalding this morning and was impressed with the sunshine, which turned grey and overcast by the time I'd crossed the A1 on the A47.4kWp, SSE, SolarEdge P300 optimisers & SE3500 Inverter, in occasionally sunny Corby, Northants.
Now with added Sunsynk 5kw hybrid ecco inverter & 15kWh Fogstar batteries. Oh Octopus Energy too.0 -
