What are YOUR solar PV's generating TODAY?

That's awesome

Any of you guys logging your PV output on the web?

GaryMo

No, wish I could but I'm making do with removing a USB stick from my Fronius inverter and uploading to the Fronius software I have on my PC. Would love a cost effective automated web uploading option.

Unless you mean by the likes of PV Output? If so then I manually add my daily values every few days or so due to lack of automated options as noted above.

dangermat

Yeah, I meant PV Output exactly!

I can use bluetooth from my PC to my inverter (SMA SB3000HF), then upload the logs to PV Output via a CSV file (with a bit of tweaking).

IronGiant

Ooh, tell me more, do many inverters have these facilities?

dangermat

Quite a few of the SMA inverters do, not sure about others.

What have you got?

IronGiant

I'll find out, thanks.

28.53kwh today on a 4kw system (16x250 sma4000).

If it was absolute cloudless, probably could have generate around 32.

What about today? I'm wondering if my clamp on meter is reading low because I've only got 18kW so far, but the temp of panels must have been scorching today.

We got to around 22 again today.  Same as yesterday in fact but was very cloudy for most part of the morning.  

My high so far has been mid 23.  

Really hoping I'll start seeing some high 20's or low 30's soon
