    Lower energy generation from all black panels?

    Afternoon. I have potential customer questioning whether all black panels will perform as well as panels with a white backing on the basis that they will become hotter more quickly affecting energy generation on warm sunny days. I can understand the logic but have never seen hard evidence to...

Appendix 4 (BS7671) gives the figures but why the different values between lights and sockets? 2. Also permitted voltage levels are -6% and +10% from 230V giving a min of 216V...

    Comparing my PV output with other nearby systems

    When I was researching PV through this site I am sure I found a link to a website where countrywide, or even internationally folk were uploading their generation data. Having spent a good hour googling and searching within the forum I have drawn a blank. Can someone help please. Thanks.

    Solar River 4000TL-D, can you change the scale on the output graphs?

    Customer has this inverter with 16 panels. Happy with system but when looking at the historical data on the inverter the annual history has a scale such that in November to March there's hardly anything to show and even in a sunny April, with about 500Kw it's only going to be a small block on...

    Fascinating PV output in thunder storm

    In recent weeks, on sunny mornings, my 3.7kWp array (ESE-facing, in Cambridgeshire) has been peaking around 1.7kW output between around 10:30-11:00am. This morning was much the same, with reasonable sunshine and an output of 1.6kW around 10:30am. Then some very dark cloud rolls in, hailstones...
