Any chance of some farmers installing them? Asking for the rabble at the “fuel” protests.

Seems like a no brainer if you have the cash to install. Worth the loan even.

Jeez, the article sounds like an ad for Activ8.
Don’t fall for them whatever you do

The government or power companies could offer joint ownership of solar systems that could be paid back over the longterm with a 50 50 split of income on units produced.

I got them late last year the last couple of weeks have been amazing, they have become very affordable I hope the surge in demand doesn’t change that

Be great if apartments could do it too but it’s a logistical nightmare

Bought a house 4 years ago with hot water panels that wasn’t advertised in the listing. Was shocked when we looked on Google maps and the house had them.
I feel they’re better than solar given the energy it takes to heat up water. Free hot water from March / April to late Sept to early Oct depending.
Feel like people overlook them for solar.

Have ours in since August.
September had no bill.
October to Feb we were paying ~60% of our previous years bill, and that was included charging the car we got in Aug too.
Batteries mean no more day rate – the night rate is now all we pay.
March and April have been fantastic, I reckon we won’t have a bill again until October, and any credit we build up will go to that , so who knows what we’ll actually have to pay but it will be low.
I still can’t believe when I pull out the app even on a mild day how much we are generating, they have been absolutely brilliant for us.

It’s hard to even get a call back from some of the solar panel and heat pump companies since the oil crisis started.

Our panels brought the BER of the house into the green mortgage rate, and is saving us €1200 a year on that alone! We have a busy house with 2 EVs, if we didn’t have the EVs I’d say our bills would be close to zero and that’s with only 8 panels. If you have the funds or access to the funds, it’s the best investment you can make. Government should really be offering interest free loans on them.
