Chesterfield, we have 8 facing East, 7 facing west, no trees, no shading, max 6kW system, not sure what they are each.QrizB said:If your 15 panels are about 300Wp each, and you have a 4.5kWp system, an installation in a good location in the south of the UK would generate about 4500kWh a year.Is the 1957kWh number from the solar generation meter? If so, that seems very low.Do your panels face south-ish? Are they shaded by trees or architecture?

That suggests that you total yield is 4150 kwh , but your monthly is less than mine 357 vs your 200 , mine is 20% higher than yours in terms of generation potential, but I guess the sun still doesn’t shine on spirites. I guess yours is more or less in line with the specs though.4.8kWp 12x400W Longhi 9.6 kWh battery Giv-hy 5.0 Inverter, WSW facing Essex .

Hi - the box in the top right hand corner shows a total yield of 4.15MWh. 1MWh = 1000kWh so that's showing that a total of 4150kWh has been generated since the system was installed, which assuming the system is a year old is not too far away from the salesman's estimate. Do you have another screenshot showing where you figure of 1957kWh came from?

There should also have been a generation meter fitted as part of the installation. What does that say?[Deleted User] said:Hi - the box in the top right hand corner shows a total yield of 4.15MWh. 1MWh = 1000kWh so that's showing that a total of 4150kWh has been generated since the system was installed, which assuming the system is a year old is not too far away from the salesman's estimate.

I'm about 20 miles north of Chesterfield and can confirm this month has been pretty bad for generation around these parts, only 214kWh for October, 0.3kWh todaydebitcardmayhem said:That suggests that you total yield is 4150 kwh , but your monthly is less than mine 357 vs your 200 , mine is 20% higher than yours in terms of generation potential, but I guess the sun still doesn’t shine on spirites.
