In response to the Electricity Companies doubling their prices we have gone solar. Sod em!
After recommendations from my good friend Pepe Badaje, we bought a 8 panel system from AutoSolar. Cost at the time we bought it was €5600 and we added another €1000 in building the structure to support the panels on the roof terrace.
Have to say, apart from an afternoon where we arrived back from a walk and turned on the immersion heater, stove, oven and god knows what else (our ignorance!) we haven't had to use the backup electricity supply at all.
We also have a nice shaded area on the roof terrace which not only provides a pleasant place to sit but also provides shade for our bedroom which has become noticeably cooler. Good news for the coming summer.
Thanks to Pepe for the idea and installation. Friends like him are worth their weight in gold! Read his interesting blog about Solar, Walking Around Lanjaron and Local Photos etc
