Have you seen this. A firm called ISIS are giving away fitted solarpanels, you get
It says the contract has to be continued with the new homeowner until the 25years has elapsed!!!!thats been happening a while now,eaga are doing something similar, except they own the houses, are are putting as many panels on as they can fit.
Im curious as to how this isis scheme will work though if you sell the house, I'll bet there is some sort of payback to them.
Can I get rid of the panels? No. You must keep them on for 25 years and let Isis come and maintain them. There is no option to buy the company out. But after the 25 years the panels are yours to keep or ditch.
What if I want to sell my home?
The new homeowner will have to take on the arrangement, as there is no way to get out of it. Hopefully potential buyers will be pleased about the electricity savings.
Yet there is always the chance that they won

Put that plug back in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!look admins been and got the extension leads out of the shed for the mower, i found him wandering around the basement looking for his red extension lead. :^O
What about washing all the bird carp off them as well over that timespan! ?:| :CIf my info is correct PV panels have a life of c.25yrs. but the inverters are only given a c.10 yr. lifespan. Do these calcs. take into account the possibility of having to replace the inverters twice during the life of the panels?
that is about almost correct,If my info is correct PV panels have a life of c.25yrs. but the inverters are only given a c.10 yr. lifespan. Do these calcs. take into account the possibility of having to replace the inverters twice during the life of the panels?
if you can get in on the generated buy now at 41p for 25years when they expect you to "earn" about
I very much doubt that,Lets face it,No one will ever take it up if they have to pay for it, as most of them will be dead by the time they start seeing any rewards.
Mirco CHP is different to Solar photovolatic, the FIT's are not going to be reviewed after 12,000 installs for PVFair point, but the tariffs will be marginally less in 2 years and there is still this note at the bottom of the table:*NB This tariff is available only for 30,000 microCHP installations. A review will take place when 12,000 units have been installed.
So what happens after 30,000 and how many are we up to now?
if you dont have a proper meter fitted and it does go backwards you can actually be charged with theft,Mirco CHP is different to Solar photovolatic, the FIT's are not going to be reviewed after 12,000 installs for PV@ tpkpope, if the dno's realise you have a meter that goes backwards they will come an change it, also i would advise not having an export meter installed unless you know you will be exporting more than 50% but even then its not really worth it, the yearly maintenance costs and initial install cost make them economically unviable
I wasn't suggesting to keep quiet about it I understand that that is theft.if you dont have a proper meter fitted and it does go backwards you can actually be charged with theft, I know thats not right, but that is the technical way of how reversing a meter is looked at.
I wouldnt be that bothered about the export rate TBH,
its more the generation rate that is where the money is.
but the maintenance and fitting cost is down to the DNO, you are only responsible for the generation meter.
