Well, i have had 6 quotes, with exception if the original £9k offer including free micro inverters (allegedly worth £1250.00), the others advised string inverters as reliability was higher and obviously cheaper.
Seems as we are near East/West orientation there is differing opinions with seemingly equally strong arguments, as to put all the panels along the East facing roof slope, or halfe on each slope.
We have plenty of room, no shadow issues and we are in area 12, one argument is all panels on the West slope as this has the longest period of daylight.
Opposing argument is to get the morning charge from the East facing slope, then the later day charge from the then stronger West slope.
If i based it on who's rep impressed the me most i would go with all West advice, i'm applying the rashionel to use as much as you can of what you generate, chanted by all.
If my paeks were wirjing at peek, all have said do not switch on two heavy usage units at once, so do i soread out the generating time window allows me to use more equipment sequentially due to the longer availability of day slot?
In our case say i'd likely switch on the washing machine before leaving home, which runs about an hour, then the dishwasher as we return half hour run (if we are not at home all day).
We were advised as we cook all electric to per-cook meals in bulk during the generating day, tbh this just don't appeal to either of us, My wife is a very good cook and Tv type meals are simply not attractive with soggy ingedients, to cater fir stirage we would need a further freezer, that cost money to buy, space taken up and running costs.
I tend to feel there would be little surplus savings doing all that.
