Just had a massive rant to our original solar installers about how bad the Solar Together people were. Still angry about the whole thing where they replaced our perfectly good inverter with one that isn’t as good because their batteries didn’t work with it (apparently they could have used different batteries that did work with the original setup). Anyway avoid the #SolarTogether program if you’re in Leicester. The company that does it is bad bad bad.
@CatherineFlick ...it wasn't Green Energy Together was it? https://www.energylivenews.com/2023/05/25/solar-firm-appointed-liquidators/
@CatherineFlick I've heard nothing but terrible things about Solar Together, from everyone I know that has used them.
@CatherineFlick that sucks. I definitely think poor installation+sales is holding things back—shockingly I can’t find a single contractor in *San Francisco* who specializes in electrical retrofit: solar+battery+heat pump+etc.
@CatherineFlick I used Contact Solar (I paid for whole installation). All done in half a day plus a short visit as I ordered a third battery. Been running for 1 year 9 months. So far I've saved about 13% of cost. On a good day I buy less than 1kwh.
