A rather pathetic 1.9kWh today on a rather cold and foggy day

Looks like snow covered PV panels are affective at stopping any stray photons, a paltry 0.1kWh today

Mine are covered in snow and ice and we got 1.9kwh today

 

[Hebe]

0.5kwh today, and the battery’s stayed at 0% all day.

 

[Alex321]

1.8kWh today, with it cloudy all day.

 

[jowwy]

Only a 1kwh today….hoping for better over the next four days, supposed to be cold, but sunny

 

[kipster]

It's been pretty grim here but had a few rays of sunshine today and managed to get 5.3kWh

 

[Hebe]

1.82kwh from the panels today, plus the battery made it up to 11% (albeit briefly).

Do you charge the battery overnight from the grid?

Not at the moment, we’re half way through a two year fix with the same unit price all day/night. The battery charges from the solar panels during the daywith anything left over from running the house. We’ll probably switch to a tariff with cheaper overnight tariffs next autumn though so we’ll get the option to charge battery and/or car overnight.

What was a sunny start to the day, turned in to grey, cold cloud…..2.7kwh

 

[Hebe]

1.95kwh here, and the battery up to 28% but now discharging fast.

 

[kipster]

We had a reasonable amount of sun and got to 6.7kWh

 

[Hebe]

Very bright here with no cloud forecast so should hopefully get a full charge on the battery for the first time in a few days.

For you guys who have had solar for a year or more - how are you finding it delivering versus the forecasts ?
My survey reckons on 3770 kWh from 12 panels but I believe they err on the low side ?
