11.2 today….
Solar panel production figures
- Thread starter Ron-ski
- Start date
An average day at 29.43 generated and 23.97 exported.
I seem to remember you saying a transformer went bang, I wonder if they linked you into another supply, and raised the voltage so it could cope with the extra demand - there are large swings from around 222v to over 260v, could also explain why you heard a mini digger last night if they were installing a new transformer. Looks like you're back to where you were previously.
So far so good. With the sun we have had, if today was yesterday, we'd have gone over 260v.

29.52 projected for tomorrow, given Solcast's record over the last few weeks b0rncast is estimating 24.7

You're right.
There are 2 small sub stations within 500m of my house....BOTH went bang. So I / they were being "back fed" from one about 1/4 mile away. This was a temp fix to keep the lights on. Initially they switched me to a lower voltage from another phase. It didn't work so looks like my continual moaning made them fix it asap.
They had no idea where the voltage was coming from as when tsting what was coming out of the substation it was 245ish. By the time they traced it up the road to me it was increasing till the 260+ I was getting. Assumption it was local solar generation and the grid not dealing with it properly due to the temp fix they had employed.
Your last paragraph just goes to show the complications of solar, or any generator connected to the grid, especially when you get a lot in one area. Most people don't realise the complications behind the scenes.

Nice here at the moment, but the cloud radar shows the cloud heading our way.

9.1 so far today, but doesn't look like i'm going to get a full charge in the batteries.
Currently sat at 92% full, but the PV has just dropped to 240w which doesn't even cover the base house usage.

Yep, a very miserable day here today too (Not far from @Pyr0m@nI@]{ ), 16.5kWh generated which is abysmal. I've been on battery intermittently and my export is 0kWh...
