EcoFlow PowerStream UK: How much money can you save on electricity bills with solar panels on a day?
29Here is a quick video how much electricity with three 100W solar panels can generate on a typical summer day in the UK. All panels are placed outside in the garden and are directly connected to our home circuit through EcoFlow PowerStream unit.
I started recording around 11 am, it was sunny and the input was 230W, and had generated 197Wh so far.
By 3 pm, clouds rolled in, reducing the input to around 18W, and we had already 500Wh by that time. The sun came back around 4 pm, but the shaded panels decreased the inputs to under 20W. Surprisingly, we still received around 8W at 7:30 pm and then the system went offline at 8:30 pm.
Overall, we generated a total of 580Wh on that day, which is £0.17 with the utility company's rate(British Gas) that is £0.3 per 1Kwh at the time of recording. Its not a significant reduction in electricity bills, but every penny counts I guess.
