You can get started with a basic system that will power your phone charger, computer and car stereo most of the year for around �550 (add 25% for dollar price). As you add more or bigger panels, and more batteries, the price rises accordingly. A typical small domestic set-up for solar panels might be 4 � 85W panels costing �1,544.80, plus the extras – batteries, inverter, cabling, surge protector.
