    Weird, here we got 11kW solar panels with inverter and 7½ kW battery for USD $12900,-. Installation (starting monday next week) is USD $ 4300,- complete with panels, wiring, inverter and battery including authorized electrician to connect it.

    Meaning installation is only a fourth the total price. So clearly the panels are way more expensive, and that is in Denmark, where skilled workers are among the highest paid in Europe. AND on a ceramic tiled roof, which is the most demanding and expensive to have it installed on.

    This is a completely new solar panel installation, which should begin next week. so prices are as they are now here.

    PS:

    For the above prices the hardware needed for installation is included with the panels.But I think that’s standard.

      Insurance companies have a lot of bullshit rules in certain states about the roof(Florida) which drives up the costs to install.

        That sucks, seems like an opening for an Insurance company to capture some market share. Unless of course it’s all one big cartel.
