Sunshine, On My Panels, Makes Me HAPPY !!!

Generatin' like a MoFo this past few days, since El Nino FINALLY took the clouds away.
Already this month I have more 20+ kwh days than I had in all of February.
Looks like the SRP bill might be as low as $26 this month.....Woo-Hoo !!!

Long Time Between Posts

Sorry about the long break b/n posts.......been really busy at work and at home.

Anyway, yesterday 3-11-2010 was my highest production thus far from the system :  26.66 kwh.  That bests the previous high of 25.64 kwh.

Interesting fact:  Both of my top 2 production days had a high temp of 62 degrees. Coincidence or related? Is 62 degrees the "sweet spot" for production temperatures?  HHHmmm.....

It was cool (62 degrees for high) and sunny all day, which I am learning makes for a good production day - panels don't get too hot, and the sun hits them most of the day.

Looking forward to seeing what I start getting as the days get longer but the temps heat up a little bit.
