I'm currently unemployed and thinking of having Solar PV installed on my roof so obviously I want the best system I can get for the least outlay. I have already received one quote of £3500 and I would like to ask members opinions on this. The System size is quoted as 1880 Watts and the panel type as Linuo P235W and number of panels is 8. Annual generation is quoted as £273.68 and export payment as £24.10 and avoided tariff as £116.63. They list payback period as 8.48 years but it says that this is based on reclaiming VAT back for commercial jobs which I find odd as it's my home it will be installed on and not a commercial property. Have they just did this to make the system look better? Total annual income is listed as £414.41. The roof in question has a gross/active PV surface area of 13.11 / 13.43 square meters with a yield reduction due to shading of 6%. System efficiency is listed as 11.8%. My roof faces due South.
Does this sound like a good deal? My main concern is not the £3500 outlay but the system size of 1880 Watts as I would prefer something higher. So my main question is this. If a different panel was used on the same given area of roof could I expect to get a higher output? What would be the best output I could expect from today's technology and at what extra cost. Many thanks in advance for any information and advice.
