I was at Nuon Energy. Now I switched to Greenchoice. The main reason were the good reviews with the "consumentenbond". I ordered Greenchoice energy and gas. They maintain to have always a cheaper rate than Nuon. The switch from energy suppliers happened pretty good. Nice mail communication and very clear. I ordered my solar panels with a totally different supplier, but you can have a free "turning back" policy of 5000KWh.

You are a bit late but they still offer places just in case someone steps out for any reason.

I haven't descided that yet.
If i have a official delivery date i will probaly put a request on workspot.nl or something like that.
I have ordered 2x pakket D (3 panels) and they only to place then on te roof and wire things up. I already have made an extra group in the utility closet and layed wires to the attic.

Thanks for the tip of Werkspot
Extra group and the wires are already in place in my house. Including Plugwise stealth for the measurement.

My order is 1 X Pakket A (6 panels plaat dak)

I also thought about pakket A. It produces a bit more Wp then 2x pakket D.
However 2x Pakket D mean that you have 2 small convertors instead of one larger. The convertor is the weakest part of the system and those larger convertors are more expensive then 2 smaller ones. Also when one convertor breaks down i loose only 50% op my energy production instead of 100%. An added bonus is that 2x pakket D is cheaper then one pakket A. For me living on a very tight budget that is cetainly something to aim for.

Nice to hear that more people invest in solar power. I have 7 panels on my roof for 8 years now. If you need some information, you can ask.
For those 7 panels, each 105 Wp, I get every year about 550 kWh back.
What of inverts do you get?

Recording wijwillenzon.
6 panels will deliver 1200kwh

for 6 panels excluding installation 3450 euro.
installation will cost +/-600
total investment 4000
1200 kwh = 250 euro per year
4000/250=16 years

Be sure where the 1200 Kwh is measured, because the available insolation depends on the local climate and the tilt angle of the panels.
Do you deliver the energy direct back to the net? Or do you use it in first time for yourself?
