John, I'm not rural so £7500 is my max. I think you have got a great deal, £6500 for that system is fantastic. The battery on its own must be £3000 add to that 16 No solar panels and a 5kw inverter you definitely got a deal and a half 👍

Thanks John, have a bit more info today, one of the installers quoted £21,000 “gulp” and interestingly hasn't included a Bosch ASHP but a 8kW Samsung Mono R20 EHS Unit, Which we hadn't even discussed. A price of £6138 for the 13.5 kwh High-energy All In One battery, which I was really pleased with. £4125 for a 2.64kWp System with Enphase Micro Inverters Which I am ok with but no specific panels noted. I agree about the size of the “Hybrid” ASHP size but I want to run it like a normal ASHP if I possibly can and only use the combo for hot water so that is why I am looking to get a slightly bigger unit than required. I will now wait on the other 2 quotes with interest.

So, I've got a bit further with my investigating and have 3 installers giving me quotes for ASHP, Bosch 9kwh hybrid, solar panels with enphase IQ8 microinverters, with solar panels still to be agreed on. As I'm sure you know things are moving very quickly in the world of green energy tech and a big disrupter to this is the introduction of V2L/V2G EV chargers. So, with this in mind the size of my home battery is causing me some concern. One of my installers suggested I need battery storage of 20+kwh to run an ASHP from a battery during winter. Do I go for additional battery storage and if so how much and how easy is it to connect additional batteries to the 13.5kwh Givenergy all in one? Grants in Scotland are as follows ASHP max of £7500 plus £1000 from Bosch Battery storage £1250 Solar £1250 So total of £11,000 Also available is an interest-free loan from the Scottish Government of £10,000 max repeatable over 10 years. What I need is info as to battery storage size and solar panel type and basically any advice you can give me.

Hello guys I'm new to the forum, just happened to stumble across it online. Battery storage, air source heat pumps and solar panels all of which I am considering but, especially the first two, I know very little about. I am looking to install all three but the cost may make that a bit tricky. I'm in scotl awe end and we can get up to £7,500 for an air source heat pump but not sure how much a heat pump would cost over and above that amount. So battery storage might be the only one I can afford. So can I ask how much it cost to install the battery and how long it took to install. I was looking at the Givenergy 6 which has about 13kwh storage but not sure about what it can or can't do. For instance can I charge an electric vehicle from it. Is 13kwh enough to run a house for a day, excluding the EV charging. I have a few more questions but maybe see if anyone replies to this post before I go into them.
