Energy-starved countries on the continent have reluctantly turned to coal and gas for decades. Cheap Chinese solar panels are now finally changing the calculus.
2 years ago I spent £200 on 2 41pw panals to fit my brother and my small boat. Thinking that price was too cheap to miss. Knowing it would be this winter I was able to fit them.
Talk about a bad choice. Can’t really complain though.
it doesn’t seem like there’s much to complain about so long as they work as expected and the knowledge that replacements will be cheaper in the future should soften the blow as well.
Agreed, just a little annoyed is all. I’m thinking of building a gazebo in my garden with solar cells on top. Seems like they some Aluminium l angle with a little fibreglass will act as a bloody cheep roof ATM.
You will likely need some form of support structure. L Angle welded as a pitched frame is my plan. A d some seal between each panals.
But for a single story shed structure yes.
Also rent but social so I have a bit more stability and flexibility. Sorry an advantage of being old and disabled. Was able to get a place while it was still possible.
I fully understand how fucked over a high % over my age voters left your age group.

are they durable enough to be used as roofs?
i’m a renter so i wouldn’t know.
