Since when were 2.4kWh Pylontechs £1000? That is 30% more than they were a few months back!

And they cannot even guess when you might actually get them!

That is SO bad for the lads & lassies coming in. Best to focus on the alt storage solutions and insulation until the prices hopefully come back down a little?Stinsy wrote: ↑Sun Jun 19, 2022 6:14 pm Since when were 2.4kWh Pylontechs £1000? That is 30% more than they were a few months back!

Re: A grand!
When I bought mine a few years back, everyone who was paying attention thought they’d be £350 a piece by now…

Incredible eh? Just shows, markets move and we have no predictive clue!

Re: A grand!
From what I've been able to gather the Chinese chip shortage is at the root of it and supply and demand just kicks in. "We've got them so how much is the market prepared to pay for them". As always it will take ages for the price to come down again if ever, a lot like fuel prices. The free market at it's best!!
Re: A grand!
It's also raw material shortages and prices.

Re: A grand!
I must admit I had solar installed in March and I couldnt afford the batteries at the time. I regret it now I've seen how much I'm exporting (75-90% most of the time).
Now I am trying to navigate how to get upgraded its a minefield both price wise and system wise. I am usually pretty good at researching tech solutions but this one is evading me.

Re: A grand!
And now you've lost the 0% vat option for batteries you had on the initial install, although that might have only come in, in April.MattBW wrote: ↑Mon Jun 27, 2022 1:47 pm I must admit I had solar installed in March and I couldnt afford the batteries at the time.

Re: A grand!
PS - MattBW, how much PV did you have installed, so I can add you to the Camelot Generation totals.
