Feck, I'll have to borrow the birch off Mart to beat myself up with.Adokforme wrote: ↑Mon Jul 31, 2023 10:28 pmOn our dashboard and according to the new insights total, up to and including 30/6, was 412.06 kWh's. Todays total so far is showing 27 kWh's so a total of 439.06. Our total for last November was 436.83 so unless I've made a boob somewhere July's total appears to have surpassed that of last November, accepting that confirmation must of course come from the generation Meter.nowty wrote: ↑Mon Jul 31, 2023 6:51 pm For the Nov 22 total to go, Its going to come down to how much gets added on after the month end close out, it will be very close if it stays at full tilt. As they use GMT time it should clock up until 1am BST , and sometimes some other random number seems to be added.
I've also just noticed although we won't beat Jan 23, its now beaten January's baseline in July.
Just checking Octopus figures for last November I notice they paid an extra 5p over what my spreadsheet shows, so at last years rate perhaps another 0.6 kWh needs adding to the 436.83 figure so totalling 437.43 ish!
When it comes to CF's, last November returned an impressive 38.9% whereas July '23 is a mere 37.9%, but with one extra days generation the output appears greater albeit with a 1% lower CF figure!
For all the other records I was looking at the total generation in kWh, but as there seemed to be no chance of Nov 22 falling, I relied on my capacity factor graph and worked out it was not going to quite make the same CF. But I forgot about the extra calendar day in July over November so although the CF is marginally less it still wins on total generation.
So July 23 should be the second highest month of generation ever in the joint lowest baseline month.
I've re-checked against the original graph numbers (for today) which comes out at a few kWh less than the "insights" tab but mine still adds up about 2 or 3 kWh above Nov 22 in the last hour with 1 or 2 hours to still add on. There is a wildcard of the dodgy suspicious high number at the start of the day but the last half hour just gone should wipe that out even if that first hour turns out to be slightly too high.
I'm looking at circa £230 credit vs my energy bills (inc SC) were under £21.
