11.83kWh so far today, battery at 100%, hot water fully charged, car is now topping up. Heat pump is running to stick some extra in the floor for tonight and we're currently generating 4.78kW, far and away the best I've seen in a couple of weeks. Tomorrow is looking good down here, too. About time, after the weather we've had so far this month.

13.5 kWh so far in December.
Zero since the 8th despite quite a lot of sunshine.

Probably be another couple of days before the snow slides off the panels.

The snow on the roof is slowly moving creating a pretty overhang though.

Our generation dropped off a cliff at 14:06, precisely, when the sun dipped below the local horizon and in the space of ten minutes we went from generating 4kW to generating just 300W!

Roll on 21st December and the start of days getting longer, I'm really fed up with this ~4 1/2 hour a day useful generation window at this time of the year.
