Solar panel production figures

redfist · Friday at 23:13

Only did 14.4 but that’s still not too bad

Ron-ski · Saturday at 07:36

Full totals for yesterday, 7 full days into March and we're at 305 kWh, that's averaging 43.57 kWh a day.

SolarEdge: 14.8 kWh
Garage: 12.39 kWh
North west roof: 9.37 kWh
House rear wall: 6.9 kWh
Peak power was 7.62 kW at 12:50

Total generated yesterday: 43.46 kWh
Total exported yesterday: 51.13 kWh
Total imported yesterday: 44.77 kWh

Week starting Feb 3: 35.1
Week starting Feb 10: 35.7
Week starting Feb 17: 71.8
Past week: 170

Going the right direction!

Are you forcing exports?

You "had" more than 80kWh coming into your home and exported over half of it. You export more than you import so I presume you're netting a profit at the moment. Presumably you import at night to charge your car/batteries?

Perhaps I should focus more on export but tbh I'm quite happy just reducing the amount of electricity I import!

On average over the last 7 days I import maybe 3-4kWh from the grid.

With a system like yours I suppose you have more flexibility to play around with various strategies.

Sorry yes good idea.

The Angry Welshman · Saturday at 17:14

12.9 today.....

DRZ · Saturday at 17:35

Looks like I'm going to end up on ~36.9 with 22kWh exported.

Just 8 days to pass Jan's generation.

alphaomega16 · Saturday at 17:37

#18 with nearly 20kwh

lol

reef · Saturday at 17:58

26.3 generated and 19.5 exported.

Best day of the year so far. NW panels picking up again too, averaging 5.5kWh/day in March so far.

Simon D · Saturday at 18:07

Today 24.91 kWh

1pudding1 · Saturday at 18:21

Not the best daily total, 20.2kWh, but hit my best peak output of 9.3kW when the sun popped out from the clouds :cool:

sign of things to come hopefully.

Mercenary Keyboard Warrior · Saturday at 18:57

Middling day again, above target for the day though.
With December total destroyed I am rapidly closing in on febs total.

March is a decent month though, people often forget we reach teh mid point between the winter and summer equinoxes in March and its typically cooler so the panels will be coolish.

Couple more days of decent weather by the looks of it and then it goes meh.

94JDH · Saturday at 19:18

42.7 kWh - an hour of persistent cloud at
12:30 pm then late on which dampened the generation potential.

Freefaller · Saturday at 19:36

Just short of 29 today. Probably around 10 exported but I barely check that.

Jon20 · Saturday at 19:59

15.2 and 10.9 exported.

partycan · Saturday at 19:59

16.5kWh today with 9kWh exported. Was hoping for it to be a bit brighter. c'est la vie

thewanted · Saturday at 20:06

33.33. Can’t believe we’ve already done 269kwh for March.

AnastieByte · Saturday at 20:10

14 generated and 10 exported

I see my PV output is not updating again or a more accurate description is I never actually checked it was working after I 'fixed' it a few weeks ago. Turns out I made a typo and I added an extra 's' in 'ssensor.xxxxx' in my script - oops. <- spot the incompetent user....

One of you guys could have mentioned it
