performance issues (does size really matter?!) [RE-wrenches]

This is a really broad request, but I think we'd really benefit by getting more real-world performance data from different spots on the globe.  My request to all of you out there who wish to contribute is the following:

Please choose one or several of your grid-tied PV systems--battery-based or battery-less--that have been in the field for a year or more that have the capability to record AC kWhs produced from the system.

I'm very interested in:

* DC nameplate size of the system
* installation location
* batteries or no batteries
* inverter type
* how long in operation
* average daily AC kWhs produced

I'll go first.  We have a SB2500 that has been operating for about a year in Waikoloa, Big Island of Hawai'i (a fairly sunny and windy spot on the island) with 3 kW worth of BP Solar 2150S mono modules.  The average daily AC kWh production is 13.

thanks in advance to any of you who contribute some data,
marco
