House Solar Panels

Personally, I think they're ugly so I wouldn't have them on my house roof.  If I could fit them to my summerhouse at the bottom of the garden, that wouldn't be too bad, but it hasn't a lot of roof area.

Beauty in the eye of the beholder and the quarterly cheque is always a delightful sight.

You would never see my panels as they are on the back of the house, south facing.

Ugly or not my sister has just had a cheque for £571 for this quarter, not to be stiffed at. 

Mine were installed in November 2011 as well and so far have produced 28360Kw. The installation cost has now been covered quite apart from the benefit of a reduction in my electricity consumption of about 30-35% over that time. Given that savings returns over the past six years have been pretty rubbish, I would say I am now well into profit. Whether I shall last long enough to get the full 25 years worth of payments is another matter.

With you on that Cyber.  I’ve already made nearly 5% profit on my  investment.  The great thing is that it’s tax free and I don’t think it counts against the £1000 tax free savings  allowance.
