Rent-a-roof PV installations.

Sparkingchip
A few days before Christmas I went to do some work at a house, I was under the stairs at the consumer unit and the customer was stood back in the hallway several metres away by the open front door, in the manner that things are now done.


I said “ I see you have solar panels”.


The customer replied “Yes, but the ###### things don’t work and the firm that owns them won’t repair them”.


I said “I presume they are on a Rent-a-roof scheme”.


“You’ve got it” replied the customer.


I was then working in the loft where the inverter is, but could not see an obvious quick fix, so just did what I was supposed to be doing up there and left the PV system well alone.


I wonder how many Rent-a-roof PV installations are not actually working anymore?

    Who’s measuring the output?


    There must be some agreement whereby the home owner submits readings from the generation meter?

    It does seem odd that the installing company doesn't want to resolve the issue. Maybe they have gone into liquidation, although Andy' B's customer sort of implied they were still around.
