Solar panel production figures

[Ron-ski]

13.8kWh with 3 spare panels where I was deciding where to place. Now found an ideal spot for April to October inclusive so just ordered some more Van Der Valk ballast system for 5 panels (plus an additional two panels- this should take me to 15.75kWh).

What I have in mind will take us to 15kW.

It comes over from ireland…and you call it welsh overspill lol

I think your trolling lately with the amount of gaffs you make. Watch the forecast and you can see the direction. It absolutely is from the welsh, explain how this "comes over from Ireland"

Mega install. Should do you 15k units PA.

Only downside is being skewed to Summer production but at least the export helps!

Wall, floor or roof mount?

Wall, floor or roof mount?

12 on NW 30 degree roof, 3 on SE wall - these should be a good boost in the winter.

566 against an estimate of 662, and 130kWh less than last April. Weather has been awful, had six days over 40 last year, and not even close this year.

 

[Simon D]

Reached 31.93 kWh today, total for April 668.73 kWh, last year was 688 kWh

28.8 today, bar a couple hours at the start of the day, near perfect and making me wish i got the 5kw inverter instead lol

puts me at 108% of expected output (448 produced, 414 expected)

If you get lots of clipping like that it's probably worth delaying your battery charging to later in the morning to charge from clipped energy instead. Gets you a couple of extra kWh!

29.12kwh. A reasonable day all things considered. About time, April has been awful!

ah, i set my system up to charge the batteries to 90% at night (8p/kwh) so most of the solar is sold rather than being used...not that i'm a major user anyway...most days would be 3kwh-ish unless running the kitchen or garden electric items

 

[Freefaller]

33kW yesterday. Very happy about that! About time!

That said last year I got 692 this year April was only 605. .

Hopefully May will prove to be better. Still, April I earned money on electric, and it'll be that way till October. So my DD is now down to £100.

 

[SoliD]

39.88 for me in the end yesterday, oh so close to 40! My ATH is 43.87 on May 26th last year! no chance of anywhere near that today, although still plenty to keep batteries all charged up.

 

[200sols]

April 516 vs 580 target.

 

[Oh Ed not again.]

Well, today is not like yesterday.

I don't like it, no Sir. Not one bit.

 

[Siliconslave]

26kWh in sunny Norfolk today (so far, still getting 2.5kWh right no) and finally got round to moving from British Gas to Octopus Outgoing fixed so i can charge at £0.075kWh and export at £0.15, sure makes planning a bit easier - 100% forced charge every day

 

[MagicUK]

About 18kw at the moment. Been raining and grey all day

22.8kw in end

 

[tamzzy]

i want both rain and sun can't i have both?
sun during the daytime and rain during the nighttime
i've overseeded the garden during the weekend and i don't want to have to water the garden lol

 

[Welshman]

May target 432 = 14 a day…..

Today 8.6…… we behind the 8 ball on day one

 

[tamzzy]

may target = 459 target for me
solcast not looking great for the next 3 days
