Anyone using solar panels for their house?

[KevinK]

we are locking into a panel bank as well.

what is shocking is the prices thy ask for them

locking at Canadian online stores, the price for a panel is about $ 1.40 to $ 1.50 per W.

now my dad had 4.6 KW installed last January, he send me the quote breakdown as I could not believe it.

he spend 6400 euro on 4.6 KW, of that the panels itself came down to 57 euro cents, that's only $ 0.77 CND/per watt tax (21% tax included).


now the funny thing is, a other family member had a setup installed as well.

thy had panels installed from Canadian solar, thy where 5% more expensive, but than still, that is almost 1/2 of what we pay here.
