Just wandered what people are using for their inverter choice as a budget option?
I've seen some good prices on Steca inverters recently and they look great. Anything else?
While were at it, what about panel prices?
It sounds like some companies are heading down towards 50p/w
Just had an email from a customer we've been to who is keen to use us but we're more expensive than another local company who don't provide the same service. I can argue some of the cost on quality etc and we're not expected to price match but these guys appear to be coming in with a 4kwp @...
There seems to be some misinformation in the mainstream media that the post cut tariff is no more or not worth considering. The truth is that returns are in the 10-12% region in the south of the UK and as good as they were for most of last year:
Half price solar provides similar rates of return...
Hey chaps,
I know we often have discussions about pricing but to me it seems that prices just seem to be getting lower and lower with no end in sight.
Take this recent quote I did and I'd be interested in your views / prices for similar:

What are you guys paying on your 1.5mm & 2.5mm t&e at present. I find screwfix are cheaper than my wholesaler? Time to move Wholesalers? Also that really plastic looking stuff is going round and its crap to use. I like the lighter grey stuff thats more flexible. I asked wholsaler why he doesn't...
I read recently that pv prices are expected to drop about 29% this year. I don't know of it's true but they are certainly dropping off again this week. The cheapest I've seen so far is 59p - any advance on that????
and no I didn't mention quality .... I think we're all going to have to...
How far will we see the price of panels drop to make the new tarrif worth while?

Has it gone dead on the PV side for anyone else?
Done a 'few' i.e ONE quote for someone few weeks back which should be a guaranteed but other than that nothing.
I know it's early days after the 3rd March but don't fancy the rush coming again 2 weeks before end of March.

Can anyone recommend an electrical wholesaler in North London?
I am based near Turnpike lane N8.
Local wholesalers near me don't publish prices.
Do most folks order on-line these days?
Thanks

Has anyone else noticed that on ebay a lot of test equipment is being listed with buy it now prices which are well above the full retail price?Like Martindale proving unit £280 Megger insulation/continuity £780.
I have got to get around to doing another scrap run soon as it did not get done before Christmas because of the price drop !
The trouble is finding the best price , I find if you phone around they can vary by as much as ££££s per ton for bright within a 10 - 20 mile radius ?
And how one yard...

Could anyone recommend a good place to buy SMA 3000TL transformerless solar inverters that are inexpensive with sufficient stocks before March 3rd in the UK?
Been told by a couple of wholesalers that 50p/w by mid Summer isn't beyond the realms of possibility. I'm buying REC @ 78p at the minute and offering it as our mid range offering. Our cheap offer is 69p/w. Is everyone else getting similar costs???

It seems pretty certain that DECC will have used these figures in setting the post April tariffs. They have a prices of:
