I looked at this a few years ago then bought the kitchen instead.
Kitchen will be paid for this year so looking at solar again.
Got a big enough roof etc and lift space but looking for advice on companies to choose.
System size I would like is a medium to large but would also like to go for battery storage aswell
Where do I start looking
Also wondered about paying for the system install on a monthly basis. Could afford £240 pm
Thanks

Generally a very bad idea. Are you taking out a loan to do that? You're unlikely to cover the loan costs from the FITs with a system now.
However £240 per month is nearly £3k per year so you'd have it paid off in under 2 years which is the length of a 0% credit card deal. So could you put it on that and pay off before interest due?Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.0 -

Hiya Marc. Can't recommend anyone, but some background reading on PV in the FAQs, and we are chatting about batts, but I don't think anyone would buy them just yet, best to wait a few more years whilst the technology matures and the prices fall. Some chat on the battery thread.Mart. Cardiff. 5.58 kWp PV systems (3.58 ESE & 2.0 WNW)
For general PV advice please see the PV FAQ thread on the Green & Ethical Board.0
