When is the best time to start a solar project?

[SignatureSolarJess]

Heyy, little debate! When's the prime time to launch your solar project? My vote's early spring – Rome (or a solar system) wasn't built in a day.. Gotta give yourself a few months to get ready for the summer rays!

What's your take?

Right now prices are really good. If i had to buy today what i bought to build my system 1 year ago it would be 20% cheaper.

What do you have?

 

[Osmethne]

In the US, with enough time to finish the install before the new year for tax purposes.

Considerations for an asphalt roof. You really can't work with shingles at less than 40f or greater than 100f.

 

[Siamac]

Yes, it's very hard in hot weather (over 100F) for any roof

 

[Aridom82]

What do you have?

Almost 20Kwp of solar panels Jinko Tiger Pro 72hc, 4 inverters Voltronic max Axpert 8kw, 3 server rack batteries jakiper 5kwh each, 3 diy lifepo4 batteries (cells from Qishou) 15kwh each.

Always plan a system to commission on Dec 21 in the northern hemisphere. No where to go but up after that.

 

[Q-Dog]

As soon as my back heals up.

Mid to late fall...
You can think you're making power all winter then be blown away in the summer only to be let down again the next winter...

But like @timselectric already said, yesterday.

When you need it.

This has to be my favorite so far

From my perspective, getting your infrastructure ready can happen anytime.Springtime is mud season up here so the 1st of May for any in the dirt work.All my ex-wives don't have a say anymore

 

[Quattrohead]

Tomorrow, I promise honey.

Or after you wear the wife down with all the solar talk and she says just shut up and order it.

Hmm, early spring? Why that’s coming up! Are you saying Signature Solar would be very willing to supply us for the ‘best time to start a solar project’? Might some consider this thread to be a promotional pitch?

I'd bet money there's a spring sale.

One might consider this if I was in a sales position, but I have no interest in promoting sales. I'm just here to engage with our customers and help out where I can Please let me know if I can be of any assistance!
