You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
You need to add in:
[b]. [/b]savings on what you [i]would[/i] have spent importing juice from the grid, but didn't use because you were generating your own
[b]. [/b]future price rises
The payback then starts to look much more attractive.

OK, 900 plus reduced energy is looking better then!
Q: Does the FIT increase in line with inflation or is it fixed?
Inflation linked IFRC.
Plus I've planted 1.28 trees. You can't put a price on that!

Interesting the Ikea have gone for thin film. Different technology to 99% of what is currently installed in the UK.
I installed 50 kwp of pv using thin film panels a couple of years ago - they had to on a very shallow east/west roof and were almost as effective as polycrystalline on a 35 degree south facing roof over the course of a day - better in low light (cloudy) conditions.
Notihng wrong with thin film panels IMO.
Nice to get some feedback.
