Photovoltaics at any cost - current situation and offers

Have you asked in the specialized forum yet?
I don’t know how busy they are, but back then I got a good offer (while the locals mostly didn’t reply due to lack of interest).

I’ll do that, thanks for the tip!

I also don’t understand why only 14 modules should fit on 2x 50m²?
I think (without having calculated it exactly) at least 32 modules should fit, i.e. 16 per side.
And yes, the price is shocking. Maybe a better price/performance ratio at around 13.1 KWp?
And still, I reckon it will pay off with the expected 50 cents per kWh, but my crystal ball is very, very cloudy.

Of course, more would fit, that was an initial offer adjusted to our estimated consumption with a heat pump. I don’t think the price/performance ratio will get better with that offer :D

We pay 24,000 euros including installation for 12.87 KWp without storage. Delivery this year in Rheinland-Pfalz.

Quite a proud price.

Of course, it could be more, that was an initial offer adjusted to our estimated consumption with a heat pump. I don't believe the price/performance ratio will get better with that offer :D

But 6kwp adjusted to a consumption of household electricity + heat pump? Where is the point in that? I would, as i_b_n_a_n already writes, fully optimize both sides. That way you have a lot of surplus in summer and thus finance part of your consumption in winter. And with a capacity of 13kwp and more, you at least have enough production on sunny winter days to buffer some of the base load. With the currently rising electricity costs, you'll save a lot very quickly.

I will do that, thanks for the tip! Of course, more would be possible, that was an initial offer adjusted to our estimated consumption with a heat pump. I don't believe the price/performance ratio will get better with that offer :D

Why offers are made "matching the estimated consumption" will probably remain one of the greatest unsolved mysteries of mankind and at the same time one of the dumbest arguments from providers. I have not seen any offer where the kWp did not significantly decrease between about a 6 kWp and a 13 kWp system (but what is significant today anyway?) The offer is not that bad when you consider the price including the storage. I believe it includes the inverter and quite a few display and evaluation options. Even though many say storage does not pay off, I say it depends on the kWh price and the electricity price in the future. The alternative is to bet on the future and stagnating or falling electricity prices, but unfortunately I believe most who bet on that lose.

the offer is not that bad when you consider the price including storage.

Although that is actually cooked the books again. Because the storage is completely off target in terms of design. Too big for the system and probably also too big for electricity consumption in the summer.

At 30 degrees, I wouldn’t fill up North completely. With those prices, it’s never worth it, is it?!
