Perfect day here as well, but very cold, the heat pump used 28.85 kWh, with an average unit price costing 8.5p yesterday, that equates to £2.44 for hot water and to keep the house at a toasty 21c all day.
Battery ran out at 22:50, so ended up pulling 1 kWh at peak rate.
SolarEdge: 8.9 kWh
Garage: 3.87 kWh
North west roof: 2.02 kWh
House rear wall: 4.14 kWh
Peak power was 5.60 kW at 12:01
Total generated yesterday: 18.93 kWh
Total exported yesterday: 7.05 kWh
Total imported yesterday: 35.83 kWh

Bit late but, December 2025 = 179.3 kWh,
December 2024 was a poor 86.24 kWh.
Totals for the year.
Production: 5.77 MWh
Import: 1.62 MWh
Export: 3.52 MWh
My import is 99% on Eco 7 to charge battery overnight, hence the fairly high export ratio.

Estimated generation 1.40. Actual 3.70.
As a minimum, fill the souh face, you should be able to go over those roof vents as long as there is a joist for a hanger to be screwed into betwee the 3 of them somewhere.
You could consider doing the north and west depending on costs and DNO export restrictions (no point if you are already using your whole capacity with your south array IMO).
I probably wouldn't bother with the east as that would be a 3rd set of scaffolding and probably not worth it for the small amount of panels which would fit.
As for costs, 'it depends', particularly on how much battery capacity you want/need. I'd suggest 70%-80% of daily use is suffcient.

Good end to 2025. +15% improvement over 2024.
Already on 70kWh for Jan which is pretty sweet.
