Please check out the 2020 Quotes thread as I have advised previous posters asking similar Questions. Boards.ie. It is a great way to read into Solar PV and a mine of information.
Well worth the investment in scanning that thread to understand the issues and as much as practical about installing solar PV.
Couple of hours reading could save 1,000s and result in the most appropriate install for your circumstances.
There is no 1 size fits all for PV solar and variables such as Water Diverter, Battery usage and sizing, Car Charge point and your usage all need to be understood and considered.
All installs aren't the same and a bit of time spent researching will highlight the importance of orientation, pitch, shading etc.

Decent quote. Could you ask them for a 6kw inverter for the same price? Will help future proof in case you want more panels going forward.I got another quote from a company in Ulster for 16 panels 345 watts. 5 kw pure drive battery, 5 kw hybrid solis inverter, WiFi dongle, price €10900 including vat.€3000 grant off the above figure.Any comments
Both overpriced. 4.7kw with 4.8kw battery should cost about 6k after grant.I got a quote from for 12 panel 4.7 kwp system plus 4.8 kwp battery pack €13,353 - €3000 grant = €10353 or for the same 12 panels with a 7.2 kwp battery pack €14,998-€3000 grant = €11990. A requirement is that after the installation the BER rating must reach C3 minimum or my BER must be at least a D before installation. When I contacted a local assessor he quoted me €600 for doing a BER which seems exhorbitant.
I also got a call from Active 8 who quoted me €19,502 originally less subsidy awarded for advertising €2352 less €3000 grant .Total €14,250. On his written quote he does not seem to have written what the quote included??
Is the first quote reasonable.?I have lots of roof space. Is planning permission needed for more than 12 panels?
