February 2014

Generation:

February Summary:  our system generated a smidge under 12h kWh.  The PVGis estimate for our system was 137 kWh so overall we were down by about 10% generating on average about half a kWh less than it should have.   That said, we have had some really wet rubbish weather so to got what we did isn't a bad result.

11kWh - best day yet.

Monday 25th February 2014
Not too bad a day - 5 kWh generated still .89 off the expected average for February - needs four good days.

Saturday 22nd February 2014 - First month of generation
In London we was so got the lad to do the reading - after a really sunny day we nearly got 11 kWh generated.  So for first calendar month we're well over a 100 kWh produced.  Could do with a few more good days as Sunday 23rd was rubbish generating less than a single kWh. Such is life.


Friday 14th February 2014
Valentine's day and loving yesterday's figures 9.22 - well above average for Feb but making Wed and Thursday about average!

Thursday 13th February 2014
Rubbish day yesterday - less than a  kilowatt hour generated.  At least today is looking brighter.


Have added daily average to the spreadsheet.  At the minute we're about a third down on what it should be generating - need some good weather to turn it round really and at the minute it's just a bit rubbish!

Saturday 1st February 2014
- not  a bad day at all - working up in attic so took this shot off the inverter!


Tuesday 4th February 2014
I suspect something may have gone wrong with the electricty - just logged onto my provider's website to look at consumption and it looks like we're using next to nowt.   Can't be right. 



Friday 7th February 2014
Sat at work, stuck inside, looking at sunshine out the window and thinking - ha ha generating a bit of income today.  Not much but I bet it's something like 7 today - will see when get home.
