From what you have said above there is an assumption that they are going to feed in more than you use?
That is not going to happen. Unless I am missing something?

Not used them but it's a 25 lease arrangement so you need to be wary. Specifically, will you need permission from your lender; is there a break-clause option and what happens if the feed-in-tariff goes down?

I have the panels from them,recently re-mortgaged without any hassle.If you want to sell your house the next owner can continue with the panels or 'A ShadeGreener' will remove FOC.Not sure I understand what 'Him Her' is on about with regards the feed in tariff,none of that will concern you,like you said you get the electric whilst they get paid regardless of what the tariff is.

Its rather lengthy but worth reading this thread here, it answers the questions already posed here.

You probably already know but you need around 3m x 10m of unobstructed south or south-south-east facing roof which they should have already checked on google maps.

Can you afford to pay outright for them? it would cost around 8k but you would get all the feed in tarrif and eventually make profit

I am currently looking at doing just that, figures I got I could either pay monthly costing around £100 a month would end up paying aroung 11k back or paid out right 8k and start getting all feed in tariff and obviously free electric I generate to use.
