Crazyfool01 Posted July 13 Report Share Posted July 13 Hope they can bring the price down …. Was quoted a price that it would have taken more than 10 years to repay . Not really much point if I plan on moving . Parents got them recently though but are staying put until nursing homes etc happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parents got them recently though but are staying put until nursing homes etc happen Prices of solar can, and should, be far lower, but sadly for this sort of product the western world has decided that China selling them cheap is unnacceptable and thus stuck huge tariff on them. Everything else China sells cheap that we don't need is tariff free and filling our landfill sites but decent green tech at prices people can afford - can't be having that! Why are our governments blocking a route where these things can be cheaper and thus affordable for normal people? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting to see what comes over the hill . Seems absolutely sensible to have them on buildings that already exist rather than farmland . Although I guess that kind of scale is much cheaper and quicker to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely it does it just gets spent differently and puts more in people’s pockets than energy companies and shareholders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
