Caught up

After a very slow start to May, with very little decent weather, it's all change. 7 straight days of clear blue skies and sunny weather has delivered a total of 143 kWh, which has made up for the poor start, In fact as of yesterday (27th May) the cumulative generation for the month was actually ahead of the cumulative target for the first time.

It looks now as though the weather will back off for the last 3 days of the month, but with 95% of the target complete, it's difficult to see how the panels wont complete the quota for the month.

One thing that was a concern was the relatively low peak reading of the last week - never ever breaking 3000 watts. I know the sun of past the optimum angle slightly, but I did expect a little more. Maybe the sunlight was a little diluted by high-level mist, or maybe this is the limit for continuous running. Maybe we'll see as the year progresses. But given the yields observed in the last week, one can hardly complain.
