After a rough start this year, January, February, March... Were all down in production. I did a post at the beginning of the month of what a good start April was. Well it was pretty good all month. We had rain days as expected but really got a number of days in the 90s to 100kw in production. The month of April I produced over 2 meg...
2..01 Meg to be exact... I am.super happy with that.. its my best april.. ever

That's excellent!
 
... and my system set an all-time record low production for April. My all-time April high production was in 2018 at 1.849 MWh, average April production based on first 5 years (2014-2018) is 1.626 MWh, and lowest now for April is 1.290 MWh in 2021. Prior all-time low was in 2018 at 1.40MWh. April 2021 was exceptionally cloudy.
 
775 kWh here, all time high for April here as well. (Much less than you make, but our kWh bank is still increasing every year...)
 
797kWh here which is just about our max monthly capacity. The sun is starting to get high enough to shine over the treetops.
 
May wasn’t to shabby

Can we go back to April? April was good. July? Not so much.

For perspective - July 2020 only had 10 days for the new system and I’m still behind that now. Luckily, we get an occasional sunny day to prove the panels still work when not blocked by all the clouds and rain we’ve had in MA this month.
