Great catch, ocrenter. I suspect everyone was giving their size in DC – I know I was. the revised number for CAR is:
6.8 = 87.31 / 12.8
which brings it right in line with everyone else.
It does sound as if she has 40 panels if she has the 320w Kyoceras.
We have 40 panels also but use the 260w RECs. We’ve got room for 10+ more panels, but it is looking like that won’t be necessary. We’ve been pleased with our performance so far![/quote]
Those numbers make more sense, though it would have been nice to be #1! 😉 I’m still surprised that it’s in line with everyone else’s numbers because of our shade. Would have thought that would have cut our efficiency down by quite a bit, but the trees don’t shade it as much when the sun is at its northernost point. In a couple of months, the trees will probably bring our numbers down.
Yep, 40 panels, and room for more, but we shouldn’t need them, either.
Glad to hear they are working out so well for you, too, svelte.[/quote]I’m not sure what inverter and monitoring site you have, but I have Enphase microinverter and their site allow me to see exactly how much each panel make. One of my panel is covered by the chimney around winter time, so I see that one panel is making less than the panel right next to it. But during the summer time, I don’t see that problem, since the sun angle cause the shadow of the chimney not to be any issue.
