Solar Performance - November 2014

Fall is definitely here. I only had one day this month with a surplus of power, and total production dropped under 100 kWh. On the bright side the panels still produced more than estimated, about 48% of my power use for the month.

The hourly numbers for this month show an interesting shift, with a noticeable trend toward late morning production. That's likely a result of whatever is causing this phenomenon.

I ended up buying about $4.50 in electricity from Seattle City Light this month.
