The way prices are now it's not bad but get a 6kw inverter. Batteries are a bit expensive and the eddi is as well. No grant?

Thanks for responses.

Use about 8000 kWh per year (air to water, everything in house is electric). Wired for electric car charging so consideration for potentially down the line). Night rate meter also and use approx 33% at night rate. East west configuration.

No grant here, UK installer

Finally having mine fitted, 2 to 3 days. So will be finished the weekend

18x 370w panels, 1x 6kwh inverter. 1x5kwh dyness battery and all that goes with it.

Stand drilled into ground. Chanel dug for wires, path cut out. Entrance into loft.

Fire board erected in loft inverter fitted plus battery, wired down to fuse board.

Panels erected on top of stand, should be finished today. Mine worked out about 2.5k more expensive, maybe because of grant, but I couldn't put on roof. And everybody I spoke to in the game said they would always do ground mounts for themselves. Take from that what you will.

Keep looking it can be bettered, the inverter should be 6kwh.

And when you say no grants is that because you’re in the UK? Or you’re ROI and the installer is registered in UK so they are not SEAI registered? If so you’ll lose up to 2.4k for solar grant and 600 quid for car charger grant. That’s not to your benefit when the grant is available! Apols if answered elsewhere and I missed it.

I have a ground source heat pump and the Eddi is something that I am ticking and unticking ... get it and have it or is it not better to let the HP do its own thing as its more efficient with energy (COP of 4), my hot water is tweaked now not to only come on at 43C and off at 47C so the immersion is hardly if coming on at all now. Have read you can wire up the Eddi with relays to allow the heatpump to priorities its own work, water etc, but if there was surplus that the Eddi could switch on.

Hard to know some would say the power from the eddi is free thermal heating etc. They say it can carry up to a 3.7kW load I have one salesman tell me I could load the kitchen appliances off it or the heat pump....but then could the battery delivery that as well.

Maximum grant is €2400. My advice is go big ie 6kwh to 7kw on the panels.

6kw on the inverter.

5kwh minimum on the battery if your getting one

Looking for any advice on this quote.

4.05kw Solar PW Array with 6kw Solax X1-G4 Hybrid Inverter & 5.8kwh Solar Triple Power Battery

10x 405w QCell ML-G11 Solar PV Panels

A shade over 12k after grant.

Not sure if this matters but our current usage would be between 6000 and 7000 per year.

TIA.

Just got a quote for a pv system seems to be everything I want 12 panels with everything for 11200 is that a competitive price or not thanks

No no battery he said it would power the house first then heat the water and finally send excess electricity back to the grid

It's over priced then. Keep looking

It's way too expensive, if getting a hybrid inverter I would opt for a different brand as Huawei are very restrictive adding batteries in the future. I would also try get more panels if you can.
