Solar panel production figures

Has he removed his system from pvoutput too??

I don't think it was ever on there, pretty sure he said he was getting close to getting on there though.

Pretty poor day today, given all the cooking the battery is holding out well, its down to 46% and we've consumed 20 kWh today, there will be some exported later, but not a lot.

SolarEdge: 0.6 kWh
Garage: 0.93 kWh
North west roof: 0.83 kWh
House rear wall: 0.12 kWh
Peak power was 0.80 kW at 10:57

Total generated today: 2.48 kWh
Total exported so far today: 0.108 kWh
Total imported today: 30.28kWh

@Oldman2 Thats the problem with looking at individual battery SOC, it lies, it makes it up and its not accurate, which is why I love my Victron Lynx shunt, that's my point of truth.

The two BMS's can be wildly different from each other and the shunt, sometimes they are in sync, most times they are not and these days I have no idea unless I look on the app, as both BMS screens have stopped working, but its a common thing that BMS's don't calculate SOC charge very well.

Currently they are 81% and 84% whilst the Victron system reports 86%, so pretty close. Ones at 53.2v and the other 53.07v.

The biggest problem is they don't measure low levels of current very well, so the SOC charge will drift, and often they don't have a very good way of resetting to 100% either, so they never reset.

If all your individual batteries are very close on voltage, and the current they are drawing is very close then they are probably all about the same SOC.

Overcast and even some drizzle here, just another grey day.

 

[Ron-ski]

@Welshman A perfect day and top of the live charts on the 26 December, who'd have guessed that.

 

[Ron-ski]

Awful depends on the size of the system and what it's expected to generate this time of year.

Yesterday was a rather grey and overcast day, this morning is rather misty with thick cloud forecast all day.

[Ron-ski]

@Welshman Nice, but what's going on with your power generated, it seems to go up in large steps?

 

[Ron-ski]

@Welshman 9.7kWh and top of the charts and two perfect days in a row, what's happening? Can you make it a trio????

 

[Ron-ski]

Another bad day in not even slightly sunny Kent.

you might just beat me today

I did, not by much though.

[Ron-ski]

No, but it's been spotted down this eay as well this morning, although things are looking more normal now with the usual grey sky coming back.

 

[Ron-ski]

10 minutes ago I was still generating 250w, it's dropped off now, but normally done by 15:00, oh the difference a brighter day makes........13.62 kWh, that's more like it.

 

[Ron-ski]

Yesterday was a very nice day, it could have been better as the clouds came in, but still pleased with the results, both generation and export. It would be nice to see what a perfect day would generate this time of year though.

SolarEdge: 6.3 kWh

Happy New Year everyone, lets hope this year is a nice sunny year!

Yesterday's results

SolarEdge: 1.1 kWh
Garage: 1.4 kWh
North west roof: 1.26 kWh
House rear wall: 0.22 kWh
Peak power was 2.86 kW at 12:15

Total generated today: 3.98 kWh
Total exported today: 10.49 kWh
Total imported today: 30.645kWh

December

Export 291 kWh
Import 819 kWh
Generation 196 kWh Last December was 130, so the new panels added quite a bit.

Total for last year.

Export 7657 kWh
Import 8499 kWh
Generation 8447 kWh 2023 was 8299, but I added more panels in Feb 2023 and Sept 2024

Hopefully this year I should be somewhere around 13800 kWh generated.

 

[Ron-ski]

Same here as well, not a good start to the year.

I think most the country apart from Scotland and the south east is bathed in sunshine, we have clouds which are just not clearing, but currently up to 4.8 kWh, so not too bad.

 

[Ron-ski]

mwuahahahahahaha see ya ron

Edit
Whelp, was fun whilst it lasted

As @Welshman realised when the sun does eventually come out for me, it quickly adds up But still well down the live table today.

 

[Ron-ski]

We've had clouds, with some sunny intervals for most the day, although it has cleared now the sun's going down. Looks like yours cleared around 11:15.

Tomorrow's supposed to be clear.

 

[Ron-ski]

Not too bad, but quite a lot of clouds about.
