KES Solar or install own

http://www.kesltd.net/

Hey - just wondering if anyone has used http://www.kesltd.net/

Or would I be better paying for solar panels outright?

Difficult decision ..

    If you own your home and have no plans to move for the next 20 years go with the 'free' option.

    If you have 10k plus cash saving earning frig all interest in the bank and have no plans for the money for the next decade, then buy outright and expect about 8-10 years before you see a return.

    If your somewhere inbetween, I'd just leave it until the pay back period is <5 years. Maybe insulate you house some more, switch to gas or a more efficient boiler, install LED lights etc... in the meantime.

    Just my 2c, not entirly based on good science or facts.
