169kWh generated for January 7.2KW South facing in Dublin. Best day was today 12.4KWh generated. The high consumption days are due to free time electricity on Saturdays.
28% more produced in Jan than Dec, so that's good. Jan still 20% lower than Nov.

We're badly affected by trees shading the lower sun. Already planning on adding a second array to an area that isnt shaded

Not as good as last year for me.
My lower string shading is nearly over for the year. Nice that Home Assistant allows me to see this for the AlphaESS. I think it will be back again mid November
And for fun, here is a good winter day, with load shifting (2 a.m. is 7kW O'Clock for me) as observed by ESBN
The smart meter is quite sensitive. The inverter is constantly feeding in a very very small amount when not charging the battery from the grid.

Hi all, just couple of weeks of solar data after an install on January 17th. We have a 5.74 kwh system. 4 panels facing east, 10 panels facing west. North Co Dublin. Do my figures look okay?

Energy exported would have generated €3.85 at Energia FIT rate if on a smart meter, we are D/N.
Felt like a very dull month and actually Dec. produced more, only got into double figures on 10 days and with the exception of yesterday and the 25th the last ten days have been muck.
Not dissimilar to last Jan at 253kWh.
Anyone else having issues viewing pictures in boards these days? I just get a broken jpeg thing and the filename.
Same for people's avatars.
Are you on a corporate network? Possible that the Vanilla CDN (v-cdn.net) has been blocked.
Maybe, I'm on my work WiFi. I'll go find some coverage and go onto mobile signal.
94.4 kwh from a 2.5 kwp system facing south located in Galway.last Jan was 91.4kwh.
Great start to the month but the last 10 days were dire.

263 kWh for the month, which is better than the predicted and about 20 kWh better than last Jan.

Hey fellow Solar folk.
Figures are in for the month of January with a 4Kw system on an even East : West split based in South Dublin. No battery.
Slim pickings again but steadily increasing now. Generated our first Megawatt during the month too which is a nice milestone.
A bit dejected though about the situation re: the Smart Meters. Rates offered by SSE do not really make sense for me to change over, I have duel fuel gas and electricity. So, I won’t get the benefit of the Clean Export Guarantee and instead will likely get an estimate which I expect will not be generous. That’s the only fly in the ointment for now. Otherwise we motor on…
