Default UK RICS report says solar takes 208 years to repay...nonsense! Help needed!

low oil and gas prices.


Yup, those low oil prices are the bane of my life....17p to 37.5p per
litre in 3 years. They're just giving it away, right?


They are actually very close to the EST figures - I suggest you read
their report before jumping to ill informed conclusions.

And it's only going to get cheaper, and what with the rising cost of
the sun.....are we actually having a sensible discussion here, or are
people just going to keep throwing out of date figures around?


It was you who said you used the EST as a source of information, are
you saying their report was wrong? If so on what figures do you base
that presumption? Do you do the "ethically correct" thing and inform
your clients that according to the EST they will never even break
even on a commercial active solar system?

I am well aware that facts and figures are something most peddlers of
alternate energy hate more than anything else, and for good reason,
but if you have credible alternative sources please tell us what they
are.
