Would be interested in opinions on a solar quote I’ve had, or on any of the components in it.
Around 8 months ago I got a few quotes (Octopus/Eon/local) for ~12/13 panels and a 9kWh battery which all seemed to be around £14k, which seemed expensive and too long a pay back period.
I signed up to a Solar Together Surrey group buy interest list and have had the following initial quotes (these are just prices without a visit to confirm).
Pricing seems a lot more reasonable, just interested if people more knowledgeable than me have any thoughts on either the pricing, the components used or questions I should be asking:

Bird Proofing £600
Extra roof scaffolding £1,000 (2 * 500) (panels spread across three roof sections)
