Solar panel production figures

31 kWh, sun has moved around to the front so we're down to about 840w being generated.

Been pricing up panels, optimisers, cables and railings for no particular reason.
 
It's going to be an all time record for me today but we are still going.

That is with the bigger system this year.

Still not completely clear I hasten to add clouded over a bit between about 1-4pm
 
Since the month is up

Stupid high pitched south facing roof array, generation is pretty much dead around this time of day on a sunny day let alone when its cloudy out lol
 
48.9kw today. Exported 31kw, for the month I produced 937kw and exported 501kw. Open solar quote predicted 1033kw for the month. Today with the heat in the loft the inverter got too hot and stopped responding on monitoring app. Cooled down with a fan and kicked back in but wondering if when it stops responding would it have stopped accepting power from the panels. Now in the proceed to getting a mains powered fan up there on a remote plug to turn on in extreme weather day. Loft is not breathable felt and I see 68c on my inverter app.
 
33.4 today, exported 28.

914 for the month (target met), exported 637 and imported 401.

1,854kwh since the end of Jan when the system went in.

Next month I should be generating >1mwh.

Oof. It's only April too. Is this your first spring/summer with solar?

Any chance of relocating the inverter, or is it an all in one/BMS with a battery?
 
Very poor day with 6.80kwh made and a bad month with 587kwh for the month the weathers been pant's this month


stem is East West
down in not so sunny Devon.
East 8 x 420w panels 45 deg pitch
West 10 x 420w panels 45 deg pitch
Givenergy Gen3 5kwh hybrid
2 x 9.5 battery's

Located in loft and all cables there. I’m thinking of running a single plug off and doing the fan. It def crashed due to heat but was responding on the front. I’m just wondering as we get into serious heat it will fail. What about mini USB powered fans? I think a big fan on speed one on a wifi plug might be the solution.

Also solar was only fitted at end of March.
