We're in Christchurch with 5.4KW of panels and a 5KW Inverter, no battery but have smart diverter to heat water cylinder before any surplus power gets exported, system produces about 7MWh each year and we try to use as much of that as we can.Originally Posted by bull....
i imagine payback was relatively quick on your solar setup.
i have a nice big nth facing into the sun skillon roof perfect for a large solar setup but unfortunately for me financials just dont stack up going solar. at payback it wouldnt be long after that the panels would need replacing again.so no go
Having solar has roughly halved our power bill each year but as the cost of power goes up the savings should increase, especially as the export rate we receive has risen from 8.5 cents to 13 cents since the system was installed.
Our solar panels face 13 degrees East of true North.
