Quint Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 We have had many an argument on this forum about this and as Mr Peacock has stated, yes it is an investment. 18 panel system: £10k Yearly FIT: £1000 System Pays for its self in 10 years. 15 Years @ £1000 = £15,000 profit. PLUS: Lower energy bills on electricity generated: Average £200 saving per year x 25 = £5,000 Selling energy back to the grid: Average £2000 over 25 years Total Profit to you: £22,000 If anyone would like a quote please visit us at: http://www.solar-roof-solutions.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB-Property Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 (edited) My OH is keen on getting solar panels when we do an extension, she's going to an event at Sheffield Uni on Thursday to find out more about it. http://www.sheffieldsolarfarm.group.shef.ac.uk/pv-workshop-homeowners.html Edited June 28, 2011 by JB-Property Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quint Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 It is far more beneficial to buy them out right if you can afford it. I attended a seminar last week and it was suggested that banks may look favorably on loans to invest in solar. if you need any info please email us: info@solar-roof-solutions.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenants Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 (edited) In the UK, really? I haven't seen any solar panels on houses in Sheffield, I would be surprised... although with the expected rise of bills, I think we will start seeing a few pop up here and there very soon! I know it sounds stupid, but Home base have a instillation kit: homebase.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/HomebaseStaticPageSecondLevel?langId=110&storeId=10151&includeName=HBCreateTheLook/eh_solar.htm I dont know what the quality is like, and I'm not to fond of home base products but it might be what you're looking for? It doesnt sound too cheap though: A typical example: Cost of our home solar power system £11,150 Total savings on electricity bills £2,426 FiT generation payments £19,866 FiT export payments £721 Total profit £11,863 With a typical installation, you could break even in just under 13 years, giving you another 12 years of profit. You could make up to £700 in the first year alone and benefit from a typical annual rate of return of over 7%.
