What a dreadful day, and a terrible month.

Generated 16.5 and exported 12.67 kWh today.

Total for the month is 1047 kWh, last year was 1325 kWh.

For the SolarEdge system it is the worst May since my system was installed in late 2015.

This May it generated 516.723 kWh, next worse was 2017 at 539 kWh, best was 2020 at 712 but that was an exceptional May, so second best was last year at 634.27 kWh

As for export, we exported 920 kWh in May, which we get paid between 15p and 26p per kWh, so hopefully about £200
We imported 662.74 kWh, the bulk of that is at 15p, which is about £100

31.0 generated and 14.9 exported.

Made 1013.6 for the month against a PVGIS target of 1042.7. That hid how poor a month it was though. The SE array was around 50.8kWh short of target and the NW outperformed target by 21.7.

We exported 648.1, of which 238.9 were at the peak flux rate. Import was just 23.0 all month.

Electricity bill was -£88.85 and the gas bill £17.08, so -£71.77 for the month overall.
