**** you guys get cheap Solar there. A 2-3kw system is about NZ$5.5k There are no rebates etc here in NZ :(
Come down this weekend and look at mine if you like.
2.8kw system (which can crank just over 3000watt on a perfect summer day) with 5kw fronius inverter. Hot water is feed excess power and we only sell to the grid when hot water is maxed out.
Power buy back price is average at best.
5 panels on my North East roof, and 5 on North West roof. Slight shading late on a winters day from neighbours house/trees but quite an open set up.

A lot of trees shading your place, but they are mostly west of property so you might be good.

It's something we are definitely looking at but most likely we need to replace the roof before doing solar.

I'm still waiting to hear if I'll have work this week/weekend on what would be my normal rostered shifts? :( Last week then called me in for all my shifts and then cancelled the rest after we worked the first shift.
