Almost 2 months ago I installed a 4.48kW system consisting of (16) solarworld 280 W panels with Enphase M250 inverters. The system is in NY. The array has a low tilt (12 degrees) and the azimuth is about 215.
I have been monitoring the system via Enphase's online monitoring system, and I don't believe that it is putting out what it should be doing. It seems like October was a cloudy month (based on nothing more scientific than my observations) but I had hoped the system would be performing better than it is. So far it has only put out 389 kW. This averages out to about 7.7 kW/day.
For the most par the array is shade free, and according to my pathfinder reports for October/November the system should have produced almost twice as much.
Any thoughts?
