First day with solar panels Try and see if you can keep away from the online data. It's fun to check your production. Now I only check before I go to bed. Make more than I use so far. Ha ha, impossible to stay away - I was an engineer! I wants all the datas, and I wants its nows!!! Refresh, refresh!! Today is the first full day. Even with the trees I'm on track to produce twice as much as I'll use, but it's a sunny day not too far from the summer solstice. Cloudy winter days will surely be different.

Does your state allow you to be paid for any production over what you use? Here we aren't, as far as I know. I did get something about the utility buying power from us on summer days where people are using more than the utility can provide.

Yes, I get paid for every extra megawatt. Not sure when they're paid, but I will get some checks. I may owe them some in the winter, but I don't know how much yet. There's an estimate of production and use, but I don't think that it's terribly accurate, if for no other reason than I've only lived here for about 9 months, so they don't have much usage data to go on - I've been implementing other things to be more efficient as well. Some are due to my general lifestyle, others are more structural.

I sure hope nobody eats it.๐ค
