July Stats, South Roscommon. 8.16kW @ 210°, 1.74kW @ 120°, 9.6kWh battery.

2 EV household.

Looking at last July we are actually up on the Solis and up on the predicted even though it felt like a really dull month.

Looking at the Energia Portal the export tracks very similar to H.A.

7.48kw - 4.4 sw 3.08 ne

5kw battery

North Cork

Just for 2 months till 12th August last year was €167 before the panels and -€162 this year

Quick question guys.

Anyone know when Energia pay the credit on accounts?

I found this somewhere

So far nout, gas DD is due on 20th August, maybe they pay it then?

Last winter when we were getting the government "cost of living" expenses of €450, it meant that I built up a fairly large credit on my electricity account with Energia. They never paid me a cheque, but rather eventually I used the credit over time. I wish there was a way to move that into my Gas bill, but alas no.

I reckon the only way they'll pay you is if you leave.

askU · 16-08-2024 1:43am

I have West facing roof top, 3.9kw system.

June 2024 had 318kw generated.

Does this look poor / defective panel possible?

2024:

June 19th was the best days production. 15kw

Please note that best hour is 1.8kw. Should higher be expected?

Please let me what you think about this 3.9kw west facing system.

Mailed them today this is what they came back with:

Thanks for clarifying, it’s just a case of you contacting our Customer Care team after any Electric bills where there is a credit to request a refund of, or you can have it transferred to another account, such as your Gas. It’s up to yourself really or you can just leave it sitting and it would be used by the next upcoming bill.

So I've mailed the CC team see what they come back with next week.

Just after getting Solar this week

7.9KW system with 10.6 KW battery , south Facing, West Cork

what do the below stats look like for week

14-8 = 30.1KWh

15-8- 23.8KWh

16-8 25.4 Kwh

17-8 16.4 kwh

I haven't imported any power from Grid!!

It's functioning as it should. I too have a 7.9kWp setup albeit with no battery. Based in Waterford.

My daily average over those 4 days is 20kWh versus your daily average of 24kWh.

It's a game changer, delighted to have installed it.

tech · 18-08-2024 10:36am

What app is that with your stats

It's myenergi. In my case the zappi car charger has a CT clamp reading the flow of power from the main incoming/outgoing cable and a second separate CT is connected to Myenergi Harvi in the distribution board reading what's coming from the shed where the inverter is.

Harvi and zappi are connected to the house WiFi and that's how Myenergi collates the info to present the data on their app.
