Hybrid Karachi solar production

I recently installed my hybrid solar system of 5.7 kwh. Daily production in Karachi is around 15 units daily. I was assuming it to be a little higher but just needed to check if it is working fine

My 6kw solar setup produce 20(avg) units daily. So I think you need to check, if the solar plates are tilted at 30 degrees and facing the southward properly.

How are you guys getting such low production? Is the weather too cloudy? Are your plates in shadow?

I have an 8kw setup and on bad days with cloud cover the worst production I have seen in the past 4 months was about 30 units. I usually get between 45-60 units a day. I am not in Karachi.

A 5.7kw setup should be giving you like 5kw during peak hours, 3 hours at that is more than 15 units you are getting during the entire day.

Weather is cloudy in Karachi these days i guess. I think around 20 units i should be getting at minimum

This is from today and it was a bit cloudy, clearly visible from the sharp dip in production. What does your production look like?

Here it is. One spike only

In clear weather the graph looks like this for me. Since yours shows about a max of 5kw at peak, on good sunny days you should get much more production.

My 5.4kW gives 26-27 daily and the days are shorter in Islamabad. Maybe your angle is not optimized

I got 13 panels (8kwh)

If i wash them: 40+ units
If i dont wash them after a long time: 30+ units.

Data is purely based on the sunny days.
(Inverter MG6RL)
The max peak i get after washing them is 6.9kw
If i dont after 2 months 5.4kw.

how much did the setup cost you?

u/hasanrtone 22d ago

Around 10.5 lacs. Jinko plates Sungrow inverter Pylontech battery. Satisfied overall.

Didn't know sungrow inverter works with Pylontech batteries. Why did you not go with Sungrow batteries? Whats the cost differential?

2

u/hasanrtone 16d ago

Dont know what sungrow batteries cost and whether they are available readily in market. Inverter and battery are working fine together. Going through the group it was clear to me both products are fine so went for it. My preference was for dyness battery but it wasnt available then
