On my way to a new solar record?
Earlier I wrote that [May was the best solar month ever](https://steemit.com/energy/@erikklok/best-month-for-solar-ever) for my solar system. Then I was wondering whether I would ever be able to surpass that record month. June turned out to be a good month (the best June so far), but not as good as May. July however might come close to the record of 424 kWh set in May.
Below you can see how much energy has been produced in the first 15 days of July. In total I'm already at 234 kWh, so I only need 190 in the next 16 days to meet the record. It sounds doable, but keep in mind that the days are becoming shorter again which makes the potential energy harvested on a day lower. I can't wait to see whether a new record will be set and will keep track of the progress closely.

Looking more in depth to the chart above, it can be seen that we started July with 8 days of (almost) permanent sunshine in The Netherlands. On the first of the month the PV-system produced a record of 18,88 kWh a day and the next 7 days all produced over 16 kWh. After that we had three relatively cloudy days, but the weather improved again after those days.

Ziet er goed uit. Dat is dus echt wel merkbaar zo'n dagje bewolking. Het verschil is groter dan ik had verwacht.

Ja, dat maakt écht veel verschil. Op een bewolkte dag kan de opbrengst wel tot 75% lager zijn dan op een zonnige dag. Op landelijk niveau betekent dat dan bijvoorbeeld dat er een kolen- of gascentrale extra moet draaien op een donkere dag.

Misschien heb je het eerder al gemeld, maar dan ben ik het vergeten.
Kun je op zonnige dagen genoeg stroom genereren en dit opslaan zodat je op bewolkte dagen vooruit kunt?
Of gaat alles wat je opwekt en niet gebruikt direct het stroomnet in en moet je terugvallen op andere energie wanneer er niet genoeg zon is?

In hoeverre zou het weer van invloed zijn op de terug verdien tijd? Zou dat bijv 1 heel jaar kunnen schelen?

Dat zou zeker kunnen. Tot nu toe heb ik gemiddeld ongeveer 2.250 kWh per jaar aan opbrengst. Het weer kan wel +10% of -10% invloed hebben, dus -225 tot +225 kWh. Als je alleen maar goede jaren zou hebben verdien ik het in ongeveer 8 jaar terug, bij enkel slechte jaren zou het 10 jaar zijn. Het kan dus wel twee jaar schelen.

Dat is best veel. Maar ja op de lange termijn is de kans groot dat je nooit alleen maar geluk of pech hebt qua weer.
