@oscarmax thanks for the info. No the battery price is for the unit only so invertor anf fitting still to be added plus whatever rlse they need to fit it.
I am assuming the £6,000 is including VAT but doesn’t say on their website so ? circa £4800 for 30kwh battery is pretty good.
I intend to buy, whichever battery I go for, my self, and just ask for a price to fit it. I’m trying to shame the electrician into giving me a price that reflects the work required.
From what I can gather it’s a days work for one guy, with the exception of lifting the battery. I am hoping I can help in that regard and get the wife to help him?.
I’m assuming it is a basic invertor I need rather than a solar invertor?
Let’s say I get the battery and installation for £6,500 I am looking at 5/6 years to repay itself at today’s electrical prices.
I’m I right in saying the battery can be charged overnight @ 9p per kwh and then sold back during the day for 15p per kwh.
I also have an existing 3.6 kwh solar install that I get a feed-in tariff from. At present I get 5p, roughly, for an assumed 50% of my solar output being returned to the grid what happens to this if I redirect all my solar to the battery, or agree a deal with Octopus energy to sell it to them as part of the 15p per keh deal? Doesn’t seem right that I get paid for it twice.
The only person who got all his work done by Friday was Robinson Crusoe.
Anything i post over three lines long please assume it is an article lol.
