The Netherlands is about as sunny as Seattle, and it's possible to break even after a few years with a decent-sized solar array on your roof.

- stjohnswarts 4y agoJeesh, how expensive is power there? It would take me almost 15 years to get my money back on a solar/battery combo that is big enough to generally supply my electricity needs if I was at 100%.
- hcknwscommenter 4y agoYour payback would be a lot faster without a battery I think. At least that is the case where I live (US/East).
- jmopp 4y agoCurrently paying around €90 for ~250KWh per month. That is about 4 times what I used to pay in South Africa 5 years ago.
- jphsnsir 4y agoIn Belgium we're at €0,50/kwh We're ordering 36 panels and 10kw battery tomorrow. The only sad thing is that we can't utlize the battery when we lose netpower. Huawei has an addition, but it only gives an outlet on the battery. I wanted inline, like my ups.
