UK RICS report says solar takes 208 years to repay...nonsense! Helpneeded!

What struck me in particular was this paragraph:
"But the study from the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors shows
that some of the measures, such as solar panels to heat water, would
cost £5,000 to install but reduce average bills by only £24 a year and
would take about 208 years to pay back."
Ours cost us £2000 two years ago. Our gas bills (the only other
water heating we had) were reduced by almost £300 in the first year.
So you were paying OVER £300 a year for gas to provide hot water only ? That's a
LOT of hot water.
