How come my Mar PVGIS is 339kWh and our location, size, orientation and azimuth are similar
But it really doesn't matter too much since neither gives a really accurate forecast for a specific month - just the average you would have got for the last 30 years so might expect for the rest of your FIT contract.NE Derbyshire.4kWp S Facing 17.5deg slope (dormer roof).24kWh of Pylontech batteries with Lux controller BEV : Hyundai Ioniq50 -
9,480 Wh / 3,780 Wp = 2.51 Os
But a long way from month's PVGIS.I have osteoarthritis in my hands so I speak my messages into a microphone using Dragon. Some people make "typos" but I often make "speakos".0 -

Would the fact that you're further South or nearer the coast make any difference?

No doubt one of you will be using 'traditional' PVGIS & the other the 'climate' model.

What's your annual PVGIS compared to my 3400?4kWp (black/black) - Sofar Inverter - SSE(141°) - 30° pitch - North LincsInstalled June 2013 - PVGIS = 3400Sofar ME3000SP Inverter & 5 x Pylontech US2000B Plus & 3 x US2000C Batteries - 19.2kWh0 -
At 3.00pm I reached my PVGIS estimate for the month (306kWh).:j
Another 6kWh tomorrow & I'm all square for the year.
I'm close, got a TyphOOO yesterday, taking me to within 5kWh of month end target.
Average daily target for end of Mch is 13kWh, and today looks like being better than average. Hooray :shhh: .... touch wood!
Mart.Mart. Cardiff. 5.58 kWp PV systems (3.58 ESE & 2.0 WNW). Two A2A units for cleaner heating.

I've still got no clue how I'm doing against PVGIS this month :eek:
Anyone get any structural damage in last nights storms? I woke at 1am as the roof tiles were rattling - I could actually hear them grating in the gusts - that was unnerving.
Looked out this morning and 3 houses out the back of mine have lost garden walls - there is debris everywhere.
My weather station ( http://www.westonweather.co.uk ) only records up to 50MPH winds - usually plenty for low level wind speeds and not a speed recorded before, but it topped out last night, so winds were in excess.
I'm going to get a ladder out when it's calmed later and check there is nothing loose on my roof - I don't want a panel trying to escape at a later date.0 -
What's your annual PVGIS compared to my 3400?
Climate-SAF PVGIS gives me an annual total of 3810 kWh:eek:
Classic PVGIS is 3240 kWh
The number seems to rise every time I check:D16 Sanyo Hit 250s.4kWp SMA 3.8kWp inverter. SW roof. 28° pitch. Minimal shade. Nov 2011 install. Hybrid car. Ripple Kirk Hill. N.E Lincs Coast.0
