Solar panel production figures

poor start to the day dark and rain till near 11 then we pulled one out the hat with 22.70Kwh made we have hot water and exported 7.70 from the house
with the battery at 100%
On the workshop we made 9Kwh and exported a wee bit under 3Kwh from there and have 100% out there as well

House 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

Workshop system is South/East
2440w of panels two 720w strings
one 1000w string
Hybrid inverter with 4x 12v 100Amp
Battery's
Plus grid tie inverter as well
 
17.5 today…….ronnie had a bad day
Bad, it was horrendous, you came very close to doubling my generation, just 8.78kWh only bumped up by some early evening sun, exported 5.1.

It was so bad, we didn't get any meaningful increase in battery charge, it was only the overnight charge that has seen us through.

Not half bad today, 35.1 to top the live PVOutput table for the day (though of course some here post higher numbers without uploading to PVOutput ;) )

19.01kWh exported.
For the removal of any suggested doubt:


Remember the factors that can influence generation, size, direction, optimisation, size of inverters etc and ultimately weather.

Finally, there will always be someone with more than you and typically with better weather.

Yesterday was the worse day since 22 March.

This is how our 29 kWh battery faired, charged to 80% off peak by 5am, dumped about 5kWh to the grid between 4pm and down to 45% at 5pm (I stop dumping at 45% which is usually reached at 7pm), at 2am this morning down to 20%

Suggested doubt? I think you've taken that humour the wrong way :) The only doubt was that there's no way I topped the table with only 35.1kWh!
 
For the removal of any suggested doubt:
I took it to mean that there is those that don't upload, or don't upload live to PV Output, no doubt, just a fact.

We also forget that Give me sunshine has two systems on the same house, but shown separately, and also doesn't up load live either.

On that impressive picture I don't see the gable wall?

PS Much better generation today.
