Investing in solar panels for your home is more than just a smart financial decision, it’s a step towards sustainability and energy independence. Here’s how you can start enjoying the long-term rewards of solar energy in your home:
Harnessing free, renewable energy from the sun means your household can drastically cut down its independence on grid electricity. This can lead to substantial savings of up to £982 annually, freeing up money for other household expenses while shielding you from rising energy prices.
Solar panel systems – especially when paired with a battery – can provide a reliable backup in case of a power outage. While others in the area are left in the dark, your home can remain powered and ensure essential devices stay up and running while also improving your energy security.
Energy efficiency is becoming increasingly popular and more of a priority for homebuyers; properties equipped with solar panels are seen as more attractive. A solar installation can not only enhance your savings, but boost your home’s market value, while also appealing to environmentally conscious buyers.
In addition to solar panels, a solar battery system is designed to back up any energy you don’t use, so you can store it to use later or sell it back to the grid for even further financial benefits:
Combining solar panels with a solar battery storage system can provide even further reductions in your energy bills. With a battery storage system, you no longer have to rely on the grid for your night-time power, meaning reduced energy bills.
One of the biggest advantages of a solar battery system is that if your home generates more electricity than your home requires, you can store it and sell it to the grid to profit even more from solar energy through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) scheme.
A solar battery gives you greater control over your energy use, making your household less dependent on energy providers. This is especially important during high-demand periods or during times of energy shortages, giving you the peace of mind you need when energy prices do spike up.
By installing both solar panels and a solar battery system, you’re not just cutting general costs of energy, you’re also making a long-term investment for your home, the environment and your future.

The number of solar panels required to power your home depends on the size of your house and your average annual electricity consumption. However, as a rough guide, we’d recommend the following based on house size:
| Home Size | Annual Usage (kWh) | System Size | Number of Panels |
| 1-2 bedroom | 2,000-2,500 | 2.5-3 kWp | 4-8 panels |
| 3 bedroom | 3,000-4,000 | 4-5 kWp | 8-13 panels |
| 4+ bedroom | 4,500-6,000+ | 5.5-6.5+ kWp | 13-16 panels |
For homeowners looking to reduce their energy costs, a solar system costs on average between £4,000 and £8,500, however this cost completely depends on factors including:
We’ve written a guide to help you understand the cost of solar panel installations.

On average, solar panels can reduce your monthly electric bill to around £40-£60 a month (based on a bill of £100-£200).
Solar panels are installed on your roof where they can capture sunlight. Using an inverter, the energy from the sun is converted into electricity, enabling you to power your home more efficiently and at a lower cost.
Most homes are suitable for solar panels; however, certain factors can determine how much you can benefit from having them installed, including:

The entire process from initial consultation through to activating your solar system can take anywhere from 6-15 weeks. However, the timeline for how long it takes to install solar panels can vary.
As solar panels are a long-term investment, domestic solar panels don’t generally need replacement unless they are very badly damaged. Domestic solar panels have a 25-year guarantee and will continue to generate electricity for up to 30 years or more.
