EG4 added a section on the web based monitoring system that allows the user to put in their location and calculates solar generation for the current day and the following day.  Besides location, what else is included in this calculation? I don't recall putting in my solar panel info (total wattage, inclination, and azimuth), so all I can think is it's using a weather forecast and historical solar generation. Anyone know how this is being done and weather there are any modifications to improve this calculation?

The solar generation forecast is a nice feature however the calculator definitely needs some work.  My system is 15.4 kW into an 18kPV and today, although sunny and cold, the prediction is showing impossible hourly outputs.
