The average Solar PV system would have 10 panels with a hot water diverter. Its average cost is EUR7,975 before grant. However, an accurate quote will depend on the site survey. This 10 panel (4.1kWp system) would cost EUR5,575. Solar Share has committed to maintain the pricing of all installs that have deposits paid by 1st May, 2023. You can save approximately EUR 1,190 a year once installed (based on solar electric-ity self consumption of 2,280kWh and exporting 1,220kWh to grid). Your investment will pay off in ap-proximately five years at the current electricity rates of 41c/kWh.
