I'm jealous. Here's what a low angle sun and north sloping property does to solar gain. And this was on a sunny day. High power consumption later in the day is Christmas baking projects.
Solar electric 6.5kw expanded to 12.3kw

Mar 21, 2017, missed tying my single day record kWh production by 1 kWh: 88 kWh vs record of 89kWh. From 12:45pm - 2:00pm energy was over 12,000W. Peak was 12,120W. A stunning day.

91.23 kWh on April 7, 2018. I was beginning to think that after more than 4 years of operation, I would not again see a new daily high kWh production record, but April 7, 2018, did just that: 91.23 kWh AC output, "dwarfing" the prior record of 89 kWh. The high point for the day was 12,100 watts, for an a peak average of 263 watts/panel. 26 panels are 265W and 20 panels are 270W. Maximum daily production typically occurs during Mar-Apr on clear, cold days with full ground snow cover. The high on Apr 7 was 28F, and full ground snow cover continues in north-central Minnesota.
