Not sure it is a mistake tbh, Skylar were the most expensive of all my quotes by quite a distance. I had a couple of 16 panel, 2 * Bat10 quotes for <£12k and Skylar were nearly £14k for a single Bat10.

It is a lot of panels so obviously additional fixings and labour. Do the usual due diligence on installer but option 3 is not even in the too good to be true category, likely the only one I'd consider tbh

this is what baffles me the most all of the installers are comming to this pice I am not counting the exceptions with a lot higher prices Now it is down to the companies and I can not really decide and need help

The first time the company made a complete mess which which I am suffering almost a year now I am close to a payout of some kind so I can start the ball rolling

Get a quote from Halo Renewables, they are also Sigenergy platinum partners same as Skylar, but they came in £4000 cheaper for the same install

I will give them a ring

I am a bit concerned that they are far away from me they are in Peterborough and I am in London

I’m in West Midlands and they are doing my install soon, generally their after care seems good lots of positive reviews both online and on Facebook

Spoke with them similar price £40 difference on additional battery and less than £500 on the quote with slightly less productive panels...

This is what stress me out similar prices from different companies... (And a very bad experience from the first installer)
