At the moment finding batteries and associated inverter is difficult.A bit more chance with a package deal and I agree the above price seems fine. Pylon batts seem to be over 1k per kWh (for preorder!) at the moment.

Hi,
I’ve got a quote for a solar PV and battery - but unsure wether this is a good deal and decent components as hard to find reviews online. Do people think this is good value and decent components?

The only things I might add is as things will be zero vat rated.
Can you fit more panels where ever you are putting them ?
Is the battery enough ?
Also if they are going on a roof bird protection maybe.
8kw system spread over 6 roofs , surrounded by trees and in a valley.1
