July Energy Production - Still Positive Territory!

I know I haven't written about this yet, but I have a 10 kW solar array on my home. I'm planning a post on the economics of purchasing the system and probably most importantly, the payback, but July was a big month for us.  Given the extreme temperatures we saw in Pennsylvania and the amount of time that our air conditioner had to run, I was not optimistic at our chances of producing more power than we use. Well the results are in (Emonitor and Enphase Enlighten data) and we edged it out by about 240 kW hours.


This keeps us on pace for about a 5 year pure payback and a positive cash flow situation in year 1. More to come on this...
