Been a bit poor here today and yesterday, although across the two days we still generated 48.4 and exported 46.71.
Every day this month has so far been negative for electric, and that includes the standing charge.
Export is credited same time as your gas and electric is billed, so monthly on your normal bill. Octopus do seem to do some odd things with bills occasionally, but once it settles down, its just credited on you monthly statement
I've been on Flux for a year, and the recommended DD is £301
Don't forget to sign up to the team on PV Output if you can, link in my signature.My solar went in yesterday,
Only complaint is i wasnt told how addictive it would be checking your app for what your producing etc

I might well be breaking my daily record for this year.

39.66 kWh generated, and 38.192 exported, new records for this year. 16.3 was exported at Flux rate
You still managed to beat me, I was at the top of the live charts until mid-afternoon, then you sneaked by.
I've got plans afoot for moooore panels, can never have enough
Yes, the panning for flat roofs has been relaxed, it used to a be a maximum height of 200mm above the roof, I think its now 600mm, but not certain on that, may be some other things, also commercial buildings are allowed more installed capacity.

Hi Katie, welcome back, I did wonder what had happened to you're upgrade.

@katie279 But who's going to get the biggest upgrade? My disadvantage is that I only have limited options to add more panels, but I'm guessing your shed will be built at the optimum orientation and roof pitch.
That will do the trick, and certainly help in winter. I've not got that much space to play with.Yeah, it might have been a factor in the design....Should have two 40sq m roofs to populate....!
I did wonder what you meant by flashing.
Great videos, and so true about the seventh wonder, mines been so incredibly useful.

For those that don't have direct integration with PV Output it is possible to use Home Assistant, lots of inverters allow access to data locally, read it and upload it with HA. HA assistant can be run on a raspberry pi, although I use an old NUC to run mine, but total overkill really.
@alphaomega16 @katie279 uses HA to upload her Givenery data, I'm sure she can give a few pointers if need be.

It can be a lot of hassle to setup with some systems, others it can be fairly straight forward. My SolarEdge system has direct API access from PV Output, but with my Victron system I have a little routine that runs directly on the Victron system in Node Red, no need for me to manually upload anything, which means zero on-going hassle
Home Assistant also runs Node Red, but you have to get the data into HA in the first place.

It was good until lunchtime, then it got cloudier, 28 kWh generated and 25.4 exported.
Band of very heavy horizontal rain shifting through here now, forecast was 29 kWh, currently 124 watts, at least the panels will be clean

Just sat at work, having lunch talking about the big black clouds, and my colleague said "these clouds have come from Wales"

Given the very Welsh weather, with a bit of Irish thrown in for good measure, just 28.21 kWh generated, and just 28.826 exported.
The forecast was 29, but dropped to 28 this morning, surprised we got what we did.

I've been negative everyday day this month, except 3 April which was 35p.
We also had quite a bit cloud and the odd small shower, 38.65 generated and 37.4 exported.
