Winter Solstice solar count

Listening to Classic FM and Alexander Armstrong said we are past the dip and heading to lighter times. I thought it worth marking that with a solar count from yesterday. Although TBH I thought today was bottom of the dip and tomorrow the solstice? Ah well..

Solaredge 207Wh
Victron 750 Wh

Not even a combined single kWh! :facepalm: :surrender:

I think the phrase is?


How did you guys do?

You northerners have it hard. 2.1kW here near Banchory with 18.4kW of panels :)

I'm obviously not quite northern enough from that point of view :lol: - 1.1kWh yesterday from 5.6kW of panels

Yesterday, like quite a few days recently, was one of those days where we were in and out of the cloud base.

Unsurprisingly we only achieved 180Wh from 3.6kWp.

Looking forward to the upswing in February for solar and next winter having KH operational and contributing to winter power requirements.

Seems like Alexander Armstrong is a day early:

We should wait and post todays generation instead.

2.9kWh from yesterday, its been shocking for the past 10 days, typically only 1 or 2 kWh per day. :evil:

Better today due to the sun making a bit of an appearance, 6.4kWh. :)
