I have had the following Quote from what appears to be a reputable local company. Due to the shape of my roof he has quoted for larger Solar panels to maximise output.
7 x AIKO 625kw panels
Sigen 8kwh Battery
Sigen Inverter 4kw
Total 3848 kw
Cost £7460
Payback stated 8 years 7 months
Any thoughts on this set up, cost equipment?

I'm not too positive on the quote to be honest.
4.4Kw of panels paired with a 4kw inverter and 8kwh battery isn't too bad a setup.
I've not personally heard of Aiko panels, but appreciate you will be paying a premium for a very large panel at 625w, however even with the premium I'd still expect to be under £6k total.
I'd personally advise to shop around a bit more and see if you can get better offers.West central Scotland
