I thought it would be interesting to show the difference between the output between two days when one is sunny and the other covered in cloud.
Yesterday was a very sunny day with only a very short spell of cloud. The electricity generated by our 3kWp PV solar panels was over 7kWh. Today is a very dull, wet and cloudy day with no sun. The output has been 0.6kWh so sunny days give at least 10x better solar PV elecricity generation than dull cloudy days, at least in winter.
Sunny day : 7kWh
Cloudy day: 0.6 kWh
A blog all about the 3kWp PV Solar panels installed in Nov 2011 in Kent UK by Solar Advanced Systems. Follow the ongoing performance and how much solar power we generate over the next few months as well as the problems and solutions we encounter along the way such as solar panels electric meter going backwards. We are registered with British Gas for our FIT payments and our roof is SSW facing. We have 14 x Sungrid 215W solar panels and Sunny Boy 3000HF inverter.
