Solar panel production figures

Yesterday was much better than expected.

SolarEdge: 10.4 kWh
Garage: 9.87 kWh
North west roof: 8.76 kWh
House rear wall: 4.4 kWh
Peak power was 7.07 kW at 14:21

Total generated yesterday: 33.43 kWh
Total exported yesterday: 40.82 kWh
Total imported yesterday: 29.63 kWh

anyone got any great visualisations of their data? excel templates ?

I can generate various graphs from within the Victron VRM, below is the overview graph, it can also show breakdowns of consumption, solar and grid. There is also PV Output which has graphs.

I can also dig down into the advanced graphs, which can show different time spans, the more granular data is only kept on the VRM for 6 months though.

Victron VRM overview, which show Februarys generation, which I should pass today.

Yesterday exceeded the forecast, I ended up on 37.4kWh.

I've not mentioned anything until now but last week I did something about the fact my installer disregarded my wishes and put both the rear strings into the same inverter, meaning that of the 7.92kWp of generation on that roof I could only generate a maximum of 6kW before clipping. I've moved one of the strings to the other inverter so now theoretically I can generate almost the full power of the array. I'm now seeing peak generation a full 1kW above what I was seeing in the previous configuration so that's made me happy. There's no such thing as a free lunch though, so the downside is that when the solar is charging the batteries I suffer a little more conversion loss, but that's more than acceptable given I try and export as much as I can in any case.
