Brilliant, I am looking forward to seeing this set up
Thank you for telling us. What is the predicted performance over a year and month by month?
So it's been a month since install so I'll give a quick update.
In the end I had 395W panels delivered not the 410W which I had agreed. They knocked £300 off which I was happy with as it it's not a major drop in total W. They also gave me 14kW of storage instead of 12kW at no extra cost; 4x 3.5kW batteries instead of 5x2.4kW (think that was a supply issue on their side). They also installed bird protection for free after I asked for it post install which again I thought was a nice offer from the supplier.
The weather has been great this last month so the system is working really well. I've yielded 711kWh in total and fed 183kWh back to the grid, which is a shame as I'm not on a SEG yet!
Batteries are generally fully charged by early afternoon. My biggest surprise was that even by 9am the PV is enough to cover my consumption (~600W) with SSW facing panels. I've had 3 poor days where I produced 4/5/9kWh and other than those it's been 10+kWh. It will be interesting to see how it fairs over the winter months.
Not the best photo of them but they blend in with the grey tiles nicely.
