General solar production question

Featured Replies

At this current stage I have 14 655W Canadian solar panels with a 8Kw Deye inverter. In a perfect world, I would obviously hope for 9170W of production power ,Which should never happen right?

 

So why does my charts show like attached? This happened multiple times...

I explained like am @&&. Apologies. Why would I produce 9250W if I only have 9170 capacity. People say panels will only produce 80% of 9170W…

I often get that too especially on partially cloudy cool days.
My 540 watt panels then often do 580+ but not for long, usually just spikes.

Temperature makes a big difference. When a dark cloud moves over the shading lets the panel cool down, once the sun peeks around the edge you have full radiation on a nice cool panel, it will produce more power than stated on the label... till the panel heats up
