Apols for missing this thread and inadvertantly opening another - will see if i can work out how to delete mine.

Figures for October below

FIT system - 288.4
Sunsynk system - 232.2
So a total of 520.6 for the month. Happy enough with that.

Mine was 136.6kWh vs 151kWh predicted... 90% - but I'm surprised it was that good as we seem to have had such a grey month.

It's been a good month up north
Sunsynk main system 223kWh vs pvgis of 200kWh - better than last year but not quite as good as 2022 (nice to now be into my 3rd year of solar pv readings)
Hoymiles mancave system 64.7kWh

East/West system - 6.56 kWp
October PVGIS (11% loss) = 272 kWh
2023 = 249 kWh (92% PVGIS)
2024 = 222 kWh (82% PVGIS).

Met Office - Midlands - Sunshine Hours
2023 = 92 h (94% of recent average)
2024 = 97 h (100% of recent average)

So more sunshine hours according to the Met Office and lower gen in 2024, go figure. I must have extra clouds parked over my house.

The 2.25 kWp South vertical system only managed 65 kWh in October, with 2 days failing to start at all, and a further 2 days of starting but such low gen that did not achieve even 0.1 kWh.

Similar story here, except my October figure was 47% below PVGIS -partly due to winter shading but it's still my worst October (and year so far) ever.

Blimey Nowty it must have been a poor month down on the south coast as you're normally well ahead of my PV output.
