    Then why big companies like DIMO , LTL invest in mega watt scale ground mounted solar power plants?

    why big factories investing for rooftop solar enrgy systems?

    CEB tendering mega watt scale solar power plants and its very hard to win the bids. Why this is happen?

    Can you please explain?
    not talking about mega projects, of course solar is future. but for consumers its not worth it as of now. i calculated for 5KW ongrid system which is around 550,000 with all components, but greedy companies quoting around 1.2-1.5M. only thing is we cant get CEB approval (to my knowledge) application must go through a registered mafia company. current solar summer market is a mafia. no govt support (to import quality solar panels and batteries), so its a worthless investment.

    LECO 3 phase supply
    Roof area roughly about - 1700 sqft ( asbestos, gable roof)
    Roof is facing North - South direction

    Monthly units comsumed in my home - 100- 120 units
    Need to add an A/C later (when A/C's prices are back to normal :p)

    Suggest me the best options + cost + ROI etc

    Can you please share the calculation with me? Solar companies profit will grastically increase if your calculation is correct.

    If you have the expertise in solar energy industry, you can register a company , get SEA registration and even could get approval from your self. The total cost take below 100,000.

    According to your calculation, total cost will 650,000. It is very close to two 5kW systems.

    Then why not install the system yourself?

    i would, but we cant get approval from CEB without going through a solar company. you should know this.
    few years back myself and a friend installed around 4.2KW ongrid system and connected to grid with no hassles. things changed now. im not a solar businessman nor looking to start one, so no point of me registering a company for just one system. i would never pay for anything that is not justifiable. just do a market research and see how much it costs for 5KW system. 500-550W solar panels came down to 30-35K(jinko or JA) inverters to 100-200k. this is just the retail price, company price/bulk price even lower.

    Inverter + Solar panels are not the only two component in a Solar energy system. Thats why you get a less calculation. The cost will increase 800,000 even if you using cheapest materials and accessories.

    i just mentioned the main two components. can you list down the detailed pricing for each part/component?

    Sure. But not only the components. There are some services and charges also

    I can simply categorise it as follows. You can calculate the total cost using the following list

    Solar PV modules and inverter
    Aluminium railing and mounting system
    DC Cables, DC surge protecting devices, DC isolators
    AC cables, AC surge protecting devices, AC isolators, AC breakers
    Enclosures
    Earth Cables, Earting system.
    CEB Charges
    Charted engineer approval charges
    Design and installing engineers charges'
    Electrcients and labour charges
    Transportation and logistics charges
    Insurance charges
    Annual maintenance charges

    පොඩි system එකකට පාඩුයි

    මම කියන්නේ ත් Loan Instalment = Monthly Billl + Net Metering Income වත් වෙනවා නම්,

    අවුරුදු 5-6 අතර ROI වෙනවා.. හැම system එකටම එහෙම වෙන්නේ නෑ.. අන්න එකයි මම simulate කරන්න ඕනේ කිව්වේ..

    අතින් සත පහක් වත් වියදම් නොකර, අවුරුදු 5-6 කින් විදුලි බිල බින්දුව වෙනවා සහ අමතර මුදලක් ලැබෙනවා නම්, පාඩු නෑනේ නේද

    නෝමලි 5kW system එකකින් මාසෙකට unit 550 - 600ක් generate කරගන්න පුලුවන්. ඔයාගෙ බිල් එක සම්පූර්ණයෙන්ම zero කරගෙන ඉතුරු ටිකට payments ගන්න ත් පුලුවන්

    ඔයාගෙ 3 phase connection එකකුත් තියන නිසා වහලෙත් ඉඩ තියනව නම් මීට වඩා ලොකු system එකකට උනත් යන්න පුලුවන්. මට පුලුවන් නම් ඔයාගෙ location එක PM එකක් දාන්න. පොඩි design එකක් කරල කියන්නම්.
