With 3.5kw of solar the annual yield would be between 3.7 and 5.8mWh 18.5kWh a day average in summer. With winter the yield would be lower and it is idea for someone whom has cheap rate power to charge the battery to make up for the short coming. There are 8 panels included which are 1.75m by 1.12 meters.
3.6kW hybrid inverter offers a medium level of power which meets most peoples needs, it also falls under G98, this makes installation much more easier and faster as it does not require advanced permission of a G99 installation.
To upgrade to the 5.5kW inverter it is around £200 more for the hardware, but requires a G99 installation.

The Idea behind this kit.
Entering into solar can be costly and a lot of people make the mistake of budgeting down to a point where a system is no good and a total waste of money. This kit has minimal solar in that it provides Enough, but you can upgrade to add more panels.
The inverter is also the maximum under G98, it is suitable in the power output, but this too can be upgraded.
This solar kit will meet most peoples needs. This will be a home with peak power draw no greater than 3.6kw. Above this 3.6kW will be drawn from the grid and you will pay for the excess.
It should be considered to how many times and for how long you draw power above this 3.6Kw provision.
There shall be other kits which will be larger in terms of inverter and solar panels. There will also be larger solar kits with a large battery and large inverter as well as supporting solar panel arrays.
