ᐅ Preparing for Future Photovoltaic Installation?

For my new build, I am not planning a photovoltaic system initially, but I want to keep the option open for the future as much as possible.

Which cables should be installed from the meter cabinet to the roof so that a photovoltaic system can be retrofitted later as easily and cost-effectively as possible? How many cables? What cross-sections? How much space should be allowed for in the meter cabinet?

What does a photovoltaic module typically weigh? What is the average load per square meter? I've read between 15 and 25 kilograms (33 to 55 pounds). This is important because the roof has to support the additional load while still being able to withstand snow and wind.

My future modules (1740x1030x32mm (68.5x40.6x1.3 inches)) weigh 19.9kg (43.9 lbs) including the frame. That is 1.8 square meters (19.4 square feet), so 11kg (24.2 lbs) per square meter (10.8 square feet) plus the substructure.

I have attached the offer for you; maybe you can share your thoughts on it. I’m looking forward to your opinion.
Basically, is your recommendation to initially do without the battery storage?

I hope it’s readable—the scan from the supplier was really poor.

Well, the offer is complete and the components are fine. For 70% hard capacity, a 6kVA inverter would also be sufficient, but it’s not much cheaper. I find 1290€ net per kWp borderline, actually too expensive. How quickly can it be installed?
