Those of you with solar panels? Can I ask?…

[Statsquestion1]

If you have solar panels. Can I ask.
how much did they cost you?
how much are your monthly bills since?

thank you.

I think ours cost €12,100 because we got 2 batteries. In the first 12 months our electricity only cost €83 or €89 for the full year and that included the standing charges. We are high users so we're delighted with them. We're in credit so far this year.

Thank you. It cost €83/€89 per month or for the whole year?

Mine cost just over 9k and in the 2.5 years I’ve had them I have been in credit on my electricity since.

Hey, thanks for your reply. What do you pay monthly do you mind me asking?

We paid £8k for 14 panels and 2 batteries. We use LOADS of electricity (we have three electric cars) but have seen our bill drop a bit.

I don’t pay anything… the panels create enough for me to run my house. I have a 5kw battery and sell back to the grid.

The whole year. Our only regret is not getting them sooner.

We had solar panels installed for around £5,000–£6,000 (after grants). Since then, our electricity bills have decreased significantly in the summer; they’re often very low or close to zero. In winter, we usually pay around £30–£50 per month, depending on usage. Overall, it’s been worth it for us in the long run.
