Since solar power is only as good as the amount of sun you get, I have added a weather tab to the generation graphs below. You can see that since May, we have had about 64 % of the days as being pretty good solar days. This is pretty good considering the fact that we have had a lot of rain during May, June and July which usually means poor solar days, but fortunately most of the rain has either been in the evening when the sun is going down anyway, or in the morning when the sun isn’t that strong yet.
We have also reached the point in the year when we are losing 2 full minutes of sunlight every single day now. I am waiting to see how this will effect overall production. It will obviously cut production somewhat on sunny days, but I am guessing the real effect will be on cloudy and mostly cloudy days when we were still able to get some production simply because of the long time that the sun was in the sky.
