    Looks to be in the ballpark. Personally, I'd be looking at the Givenergy All-in-One, as with bits included gateway it offers islanding, in the event of a power cut, and you can charge/discharge at 6kW, so it will cover most appliances without the need for additional grid import.

    I'd recommend a 5kW SolarEdge inverter (20 year warranty) AC coupled to the GiveEnergy All-in-One battery.

    ~£13K installed, which is a 10% cost premium for 40% more storage and a superior inverter w/ longer warranty. 


    -  10 x 400w LG Bifacial + 6 x 550W SHARP BiFacial + 2 570W SHARP Bifacial + 5kW SolarEdge Inverter + SolarEdge Optimizers. SE London.

    -  Triple aspect. (33% ENE.33% SSE. 34% WSW)

    -  Viessmann 200-W on Advanced Weather Comp. (The most efficient gas boiler sold)
