17kW System = 98.4 kWh Production (5.79kWh/kW of Panels)

I just received PTO on Tuesday, and today was the first clear sunny day in SW Florida. My 17kW Tesla system produced 98.4 kWh according to Tesla, and 99.33 kWh according to SolarEdge! That is 5.79 kWh/kW of Panels. I assume this is good production from this time of year. How is everyone else doing?

That is impressive .. you might love the FL sun.

Max I have got is 39 kWh in peak winter NorthEast one day on a 14.28kW system
 
Southern California ... 8.16 kW panels. Although I just started, within last 15 days, max I had was 47.8, that about what you are getting in Florida.

Phoenix, Arizona 42.4 kWh max on Friday with 8.16 kW of panels.
74.9 KWh on Friday 2/26 with 16.32 KW 48 panels. My system is twice the size but produced 10 KWh less than yours if doubled your output. I have 35 panels facing west and 13 facing east. I’ve also noticed that SRP reports less than the Tesla app. For 2/26 SRP reports I only generated 69 KWh. Anyone else see Tesla app reporting that much more than utility is showing?

Yep, all about direction facing, and any shading.
 
12.9 system 10 inverter, went from my first 20 day in early Feb to 42 on full sun the other day. Will max out near 80 in May before the summer heat dials it back to low 70s. The difference from solar edge and tesla app production is likely DC (panel) to AC (useable)
