    solar quote question - estimated return on investment timescale.

    Does anyone know if a solar installation quote should include the loss of interest incurred on the investment. Should this amount be factored into the return on investment time scale. On a large installation this makes a huge difference to the payback time.

    Solar PV is still a good investment.

    When the FIT rate was 43p Solar PV was a fantastic investment, with annual returns of 10-13% on your capital outlay, this is index linked to the RPI for 25 years, as it was offering such high returns, there were many investors that seized the opportunity, many large investments were made in a...
