If you're serious about getting solar, in this video, I'll take you through the major system components you'll be needing, together with a couple of optional ones, and provide some tips on how to find a good installer.

If you're getting a lot from my videos, and would like to support me in my efforts to help everyone, here are a couple of ways to do this:
1. You could www.buymeacoffee.com/GaryDoes... :-)
2. If you're thinking of switching energy supplier to Octopus Energy. If you call them and give them my referral code ("blue-wind-201") and my name ("Gary Waite") and we'll both get a £50 credit to our accounts as a result! share.octopus.energy/blue-win...
I believe Octopus Energy is doing more than any other energy company in the UK to take us forward to a bright renewable future, and I'll make making reference to them and their initiatives in future videos.
For UK viewers, this highly recommended Facebook Group is a great place to learn about solar, ask questions, and even get opinions from members on quotations you've received: / 2197329430289466

* NOTES SINCE PUBLICATION * 1. In the video I make reference to MCS, a certification scheme, normally required by energy providers before they can provide certain services like paid export. There are now other similar schemes, including FlexOrb that energy providers are accepting as well. Competition in this area is good as it will help keep the pricing of these schemes down. 2. Also in the video, I talk about the effect of shading on a single panel affecting all the other panels. In actual fact, it depends of the type of shading. If the shading is hard (for example, from a chimney or another building) then the panel is able to protect itself (via bypass diodes) without affecting any the other panels in the string. If the shading is diffuse or limited (for example, a TV antenna or cable) then this could well affect the other panels because that kind of shading is not sufficient to activate the bypass diodes in that panel. See this video for a more complete explanation: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b62mm6eZqLmul6M.html

One of the companies I priced for Solar panels was $65,000 for my home, It would take me 36 years to pay for that at the cost of what I pay for my light bill now.

@AnthonyAlvarado78 7 ай бұрын

@docbrown6550 most states have rebates and SRECs available to reduce that burden. Most of my analysis came back at a 5 year pay for itself cost.

@@AnthonyAlvarado78 My light bill is around $100 a month, at a cost of $65,000, it is not feasible in any form or fashion to buy solar. Our state does not help that much to make enough of a difference. It would actually take me more than 36 years to pay that off, at the cost of what I'm paying now for my light bill.

@federicov362 11 ай бұрын

A little correction, microinverters should not be the more expensive option, it should be the same as a system that use optimizers, let says is buy a 10kw String inverter for £2.000 (SolarEdge) and you install 27 panels (370w each) for a 9,9kW system array, when you divide 2.000/27= $75, then an optimizer will cost you around $60 (or more) each, the total is around £135+ per panel, which is very similar to a microinverter like Enphase IQ7A, £160 each (and now cheaper with the new IQ8 series). This is just an example, the String Inverter + Optimizers is more expensive when you install a smaller array system, because a 5kW won't cost you half price of a 10kW S. Inverter, so the cost per panel is a little higher, and keep in mind when you use that setup, you have 3 points of failure (panel/optimizer/inverter), while with a microinverter you only have 2, besides Enphase provide a 25 years of warranty.

Buying solar this year, this info just armed me for my upcoming quotes. You’ve earned my sub, even if I never need your videos again.

@GaryDoesSolar Жыл бұрын

That’s praise indeed - thank you! I hope through these quotations you get the great setup for a great price 👍🏻

Really helpful video. I got quotes for a solar installation a couple of years ago and didn’t feel confident proceeding. I feel that after this video and others on this channel I could have another go.

Am just looking at going solar and this video has been extremely useful. Many thanks for going to the trouble of putting this information together, it must have been a lot of work.

You're most welcome, Ian. Yeah, it was quite a few hours to put it together, but comments like this make it all worthwhile :-) Good luck with your solar journey!

@@GaryDoesSolar Have a survey appointment booked for early Nov, thanks to your videos I’ll be in a position where I know what questions to ask. Was already told the earliest I can get an installation would be 6-7 months away due to shortage of panels and batteries etc so plenty of time to do further research. Thanks again for the information, extremely useful. Have liked and subscribed 👍 Cheers.
