Solar generation in rain/cloudy conditions

[B-1]

ROI: 50 years.

Or 3 eskom increases.

Or 3 eskom increases.

Or 10 power outages where you cannot work.

PV has been really good. I see we are in for a grid weekend this weekend in PTA.

If I could export solar from where I am I would be a rich man. It’s been 2 months now and the lost cloud I have seen is those high and white patchy clouds. And that was maybe 1 day at most.

Interesting part is with all the abundant solar they have, renewables only count for less than 10% of their power. Electricity is a 3rd of SA prices

Finally got solar assistant onto a new sd card, I see the new version allows you to back slices, so I took the last day I backed up to this morning. Sure missed a few things but at least I could move most of it across.
Going to try see if I can get the old SD card working and backup that missing month and see what happens.

East coast getting hammered by the looks of it.

I hope we get a bit of the rain in JHB. Some excellent PV days with fairly clean air and now our AQI has gone for a ball of dung - 152 currently. Must be the wind whipping up the dust.

Be very very quiet. I do not want the Durban treatment.

Well according to Wunderground, all we're getting is wind and dust.
