Solar electric panels
Has anyone experience of having solar electric panels installed?
If so which company did you use and are you happy with the results
If not happy why and who was the installer.
Thanks for the info. The quote I have had was a lot cheaper than the ones you got. But sometimes cheaper is not the way to go and I want to get a few before I make my mind up.
Hi l have had Solar now for 2 years and had no problems. l'm on a 24v system with 12 - 2v deep cycle batt. My system cost me aprox 5000.00. euros. l know there is a guy l think it's Almera who is selling complete Solar syetems for that price. But beware in the winter time when the sun is not shining every day you might need a Wind Turbine. That's another 1000.00euros
Also remember if the elec fails you cant call the energy coy you have to sort it yourself.
I haven't had solar panels installed but have had a quote for 6.5kw fully automated with battery house plus computer, plus sun following panels on a pole, for a new property. and the quote was €25,000. So as my electric bill is approx. €1,200 a year it will take me over 20yrs just to break even. Just for hot water the quote was for €2,700 (a panel on the roof), I use about 6 bottles of gas a year just for my hot water, which amounts to around €100. So you see I would advise you study it very carefully before going ahead.
