Solar panel production figures

I actually get a dip in production over mid day at this time of year.

My east panels get shaded by my own roof (stubby L- shaped house) so in effect both sets of panels are in shade at the same time.

The high pitch and low sun means not much is caught by either the east or west generally.

Basically perfect and new record day for the year :p

Here is what I mean by the dip over mid day:

I could get some optimisers but in a few weeks it won’t be an issue so it’s unlikely to ever be worth it cost.

I have shading issues on my second string, costing about 1.5kWh on a perfect day at this time of the year but came to the same conclusion. It wouldn't ever pay back.
 
Perfect day here as well, seems 16.41 kWh is the maximum for an early January day, I'm pleased with that.

My garage gets shading from a tree, the rear wall panels get shading from a neighbours house, both due to the low sun. There may be some shading on the north west roof from the chimney, but I don't think that's actually an issue this time of year. SolarEdge system gets very little if any shading (apart from the boiler flue which affects two panels).

The rear wall generated more than the NW roof and garage combined, garage and NW roof has 9.96 kWp of panels, rear wall has just 1.575 kWp

SolarEdge: 8.5 kWh
Garage: 2.18 kWh
North west roof: 1.75 kWh
House rear wall: 3.98 kWh


 
A perfect day yesterday with loads of export as well, will be nicely negative.


SolarEdge: 8.5 kWh
Garage: 2.18 kWh
North west roof: 1.75 kWh
House rear wall: 3.98 kWh
Peak power was 3.70 kW at 11:20

Total generated yesterday: 16.41 kWh
Total exported yesterday: 22.91 kWh
Total imported yesterday: 30.318kWh
