Re: January?
Well, our ‘solar’ was being able to sit outside with a chilled white and some nibbles. It was delightful and so uplifting.
Comfortable enough (sheltered and in the sun) for shorts and T.
Sure for you guys with PV this weekend is going to be brilliant.

Re: January?
Even my puny array made about 8kWh today! Batteries positively bursting at the seams
Re: January?
Stonking past 3 days,
18th Jan - 19 kWh
19th Jan - 18 kWh
And today 20 kWh
Next 4 days look like similar too.

Re: January?
Already over 200 kWh here for Jan. Doesn't bode well for summer water levels.

Re: January?
You’re obviously not in Somerset
Thankfully, some of the remedial works (dredging, clearing rhynes etc) following the disaster of 2014 have made this year controllable, though water levels/rate of water level increases has been greater than 2014, management by the EA has been better, though we’re still under a Major Incident.
Hopefully, given the weather forecast for the next week, levels on the moors will decrease.
Some of the reservoirs are now at capacity.
Re: January?
Only had solar since end of September, best day so far was a day in October just over 7kw, currently getting approx 3.5kw but have lots of tall trees blocking the sunlight
Looking forward to March/April into summer

Re: January?
It can be a little frustrating especially on that timeline year one. You've got lots to look forward to!
My tree shaded system generated the following yesterday.
Victron South facing system 2.63kWh
Solaredge West/East system 1.5kWh
Not much yet there is a recognisable upward trend and its good to see confirmation of the superior Winter performance of the Victron system. (75% greater output).
