Construction costs are currently skyrocketing

Hello you two lucky ones! May I ask what you paid for the [kwP]? Our system went into operation this January. The offer price is accordingly from the year 2021. Since our roof is not really photovoltaic compliant (hip roof), we have two inverters and covered four sides. The price was €1240 per [kwP].

I also ordered our almost 11kwhp two weeks ago. We were just in the offer phase when the draft came around. Sometimes you just have to be lucky in life. :cool:

May I ask what you are paying for the 11kwp? We are also considering installing photovoltaics next year. But I don't want to place an order yet as long as we haven't finished all the samples and so on.

Do you see a price drop in photovoltaics in the foreseeable future? I am currently cautiously dealing with the topic. We would definitely have to take out a loan for it. The two trees that shade the roof will come down this winter (not just for that reason... the fir tree is simply very close to the house and is already difficult to fell). The roof is only six years old. Orientation is west. A smaller portion of the roof of the annex faces south.

My amateur assessment: I don't see any price decline there. The order books are full and the energy crisis adds to that. There is also a certain feeling of partial self-sufficiency. The trend towards WP heating systems and electric vehicles also supports this. High demand rarely goes hand in hand with a price drop. But maybe someone else knows more?

Sure, you may :) We are paying €16,800 net. However, with a hybrid inverter that allows retrofitting a storage system and has an emergency power function. With a normal inverter, approximately €1,000 cheaper. However, I now suspect that all the solar installers are using the new legislation to basically sell gross as net.

Good question. I asked the local supplier for an offer. More than 4 weeks have passed and still no call. I also want to finally get an idea of where the prices are now.
