Hi
This is the UK in february and i know its not a great sunshine but i have 27 panels the 335w type and each tracker has 7 panels and one has 6, but do you think i am getting enough from my panels?
To accurately assess the power production of your MPPT, a more detailed understanding of the operational environment and system parameters is needed.
A few more screenshots ect.
List of equipment
The amount of power generated is intrinsically linked to environmental conditions such as the intensity of sunlight, which varies significantly between full sun, shade, and cloudy skies. Furthermore, the angle of the solar panels in relation to the sun and their directional orientation play crucial roles in capturing optimal sunlight.
The state of charge (SOC) of the batteries is also a critical factor, as a fully charged batteries will limit the MPPT’s output to simply maintaining a float charge and covering the system’s loads.
Finally, a comprehensive picture requires knowing the specific AC and DC loads being supplied, as the MPPT/Inverter will prioritize meeting these demands while trying to charge the batteries.
Providing this additional information will paint a clearer picture of how these factors are interacting to influence the power output of your system.
Thank you for your help, i will get more information for you. the roof panels are at 31 degrees.
For info, North Yorkshire, 2 x 4kWp arrays one East facing, the other West on 32deg pitched roof.
Last week or so has seen daily productions of about 7kWh, best has been 12kWh and many days of 1-2kWh as we had fog / drizzle off the coast. No battery limit as we export excess.
Todays power production, yield 8kWh from 2 x 4kWp arrays as noted above, best to show power and yield rather than Volts and Amps.
agree with @pwfarnell on this, mine below. (17/2)
Located East Anglia.
I have six arrays that face in different direction and at different angles, I am off-grid so my MPPT only produce what I need to cover my loads and charge the batteries (x28 AGM’s)
HI
Are these more helpfull?
Well if that is your total power from 9kWp of panels, around 2kW for most of the generating day then I would say that this is about right. My 8kWp panels were generating around 1.5 kW.
There is a victron MPPT calculator that you put your panels into and location and it provides an estimate through the year. There are many sites that will give you more refined estimates based on location, direction and angle throughout the year.
