Sunny now 4kW coming in, but a bit late to save the day.

Re: Nowty Towers Vs UK Grid Storage
Weather up here has not been great either but better than down south by the look of it, had 2kW coming in at 13:00hrs and up to 6.3kW 1/2hr later giving 8.1kWh for the day (6.7kWh yesterday).

Re: Nowty Towers Vs UK Grid Storage
We ended up generating just over 6kWh, enough to top the battery up a bit and offset the house baseload. Heck of a lot better than the 1.87kWh yesterday.

Re: Nowty Towers Vs UK Grid Storage
2.44kWh here, the low pitch array really does perform well in cloudy conditions.
Batch cooking has taken a toll on the batteries though, forecasting to be at 6% by the time it charges overnight.
The extra panels will be here on the 15th, but I will admit I am getting tempted to play with a DIY battery like Joeboy...

There are times when I am grateful for having been born with zero interest in football.
Bad enough having to deal with the cultural and dietary clashes between Thai Buddhism and Christianity . . .
