$46000 investment saves $4000 per year does not equal a 5year payback.
It is 11.5years to break even at best. The warranty will have run out by then and the battery performance will have degraded over time also making it takes even longer to payoff.

In Ankara Turkey, I live in 200 square meters apartment and my monthly electricity cost is on average 25 AUD, my water consumption cost is 12 AUD per month. I have got A+++ gadgets, washing machines, freezer, German Buderus heater of water and winter heater combi, double phased brand new. My mobile phone monthly bill is 15 AUD, my internet monthly bill is 17 AUD per month limitless. Ankara's winters look alike southern Sweden cities.

I noticed you chopped off one of the most misleading parts of this story. Why not do a real story on how installing batteries actually make people lose money. The savings made are from the solar panels not the batteries.
