h2o,
It sounds like you may be making progress. When we were kids, my family called PG&E Pigs Goats and Elephants. So, yeah, progress may be slow.
But clearly they messed up, or perhaps your installer didn't make it clear when they submitted the NEM request, who knows. I got an email from PG&E showing the info my installer gave them on the application, and I can see that they simplified a bit. I have some panels at 150º and some at 240º azimuth, but the app had them all at 240.
But seeing how messed up yours is, I figured I should double check my much smaller system's numbers. 14 270W panels, Enphase inverter on each one, all at 240º and 23º tilt. For the month ending 2/11/22, my B&W bill estimate says -293 kWh. I ran the calculator online, and for Jan it said 233 kWh and Feb 305. So it is in the ballpark. My actual production from those 14 panels, was 294 kWh, so PG&E's estimate was right on. It should not be so close, given ageing weather shading, wrong azimuth for some of the panels, etc, etc, etc. But their estimate checks out as damn close for my system.
Yours, however, as you knew, is way off. Your 30 kW is roughly 8 times my 3.85kW, so your Febuary estimate should be somewhere around 2,300 kWh. Clearly a case of garbage in. Somewhere they messed up the parameters in your account setup.
If I recall correctly, SGIP helped with your batteries, and batteries is why PG&E does this estimation thing. So maybe, just maybe, the SGIP people might be able to put you in touch with the right person to fix the screw-up on a more reasonable time frame. I have found them pretty responsive, just a few days to respond to email at
[email protected]. Anyway, I hope PG&E fixes this for you soon.
I gather your heat pumps were working overtime to keep you warm, over 2 mWh. On the other hand, Tesla just ended my free supercharging for our Model Y, so our usage is shooting up. 50 kWh more tonight, to recharge after a run to Santa Cruz today.
