Apologies… bizarrely I thought you had a sig, now I realise on mobile they don’t show up…

Perhaps the other thread is better suited… I’ll ask anyway.
I have 6.7kWp panels
3.6kW inverter
5.12kWh battery
You may remember me asking at the time if I should’ve had a 5 or even 8kW inverter… anyway, I’m likely having the same company install a heat pump but I used that as leverage to come and fit a suitable sized inverter like they should’ve done 15months ago… anyway, how much can I reasonably expect my output to change? Currently I make 5500kWh/year.

significantly more, especially that you'll have less clipping with a 5kw inverter
winter = not much change unless your array consistently clips during winter?
summer = +30-40% maybe?

Are the panels south-facing? If so you might make another 1000kWh or so. A 3.6kW inverter on nearly 7kW of panels though. Some installers just take the pee!

Far better day with 34.20Kwh made and still have 1.1 coming in and its 7.20 so might go up a bit more
System 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

20.5 for today…..over 300 for the month now and hopefully a few more 20+ days over the next few days

53.6 kWh and 33.70 kWh export - decent day I reckon.
Associate
27.5kWh and 17.2kWh exported.

35.2 generated and 27.5 exported.
A better day than recently. Getting a prediction of 46.2 tomorrow on Solcast so fingers crossed.

21.6 kwh today. Lower than expected.
Newb question - is that 40.6 total or 40.6 plus the 30.5 that was exported?
That will be 40.6 generated in total, and 30.5 exported.
Good day for me to, 45.3 generated and 39.933 exported.

40.6 generated, of which 30.5 of that was exported
Edit: I've used £18.01 of electric and exported £75.93 so far this month
