solar panel comparisons

[SRE]

Not my term - it came from the 3 utilities that I spoke to about a similar situation. It could have changed now but as far as they were concerned the panels were now second hand and didn't qualify for FiT. Ridiculous I know, especially if they were fitted in the last 12 months. I challenged them when they said this but they were adamant there was no movement on their view. If you manage to get round it it would be useful for us all ...

are you talking about taking them off of one roof and moving them to another?

 

[SRE]

Any movement of the panels from one property to another deemed them as second hand and not eligible for Fit. I'd have thought all you needed to do was re-register the panels ata different location but they weren't having any of it .... I suppose if you're not expecting the Fit it's irrelevant but if you are then it is!

Inverter 7% more efficient, modules 5%+,
This does not equate to 600 units !

How does the elec company know as the PV modules serial numbers are not on MCS certification, and the first install handover manual is waste paper!

very valid point - only problem is I'd hate to be the one they find out about .... all that money dopwn the drain..
