Historical RE data now available...
« on: November 08, 2007, 08:41:38 PM »
Here is my simple table-per-month:


http://www.earth.org.uk/off-grid-stats-historical.html


It should get updated at least once a month, more when the battery has power that needs dumping around noon!


(Clearly the current month will always be partial.)

I've been computing the stats for the longest gap for laptop off-grid

and wind power for most of October and November, and the worst gap for off-grid

(which is essentially a fairly-full solar PV battery charge)

is about 3 days in November and 5 days in October (strange that October is worse).

The implication is that a truly off-grid system would need 5 or more days

of battery capacity given my PV and siting though the average is ~1 day.

Wind is showing a gap of well over a week and ~1% availability,

which suggests that it really isn't a contender in my part of London.
