Power Your Home With the Sun — For Free

Yes, solar panels may be available through ECO4 for eligible households, particularly those in fuel poverty or properties off the gas grid. The scheme prioritizes whole-house energy efficiency improvements, and solar panels can be part of a comprehensive package.

A typical 4kWp solar system can save around £270-£400 per year on electricity bills, depending on your energy usage and location. With the Smart Export Guarantee, you can also earn money by selling excess electricity back to the grid.

Yes, solar panels work effectively in the UK. While they produce more electricity in summer, they still generate power on cloudy days and throughout winter. Modern panels are designed to work efficiently in various weather conditions.

Solar panels typically come with 25-year performance warranties and can last 30+ years. Most manufacturers guarantee at least 80% of original performance after 25 years. Inverters usually need replacing after 10-15 years.

Most residential solar installations fall under permitted development rights and don't require planning permission. However, there are some restrictions for listed buildings, conservation areas, and certain roof configurations. We handle all necessary checks and applications.

Excess electricity is automatically exported to the grid through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG). You'll receive payments for the electricity you export, typically 3-7p per kWh depending on your energy supplier's tariff.

Yes, battery storage can be added to existing solar installations. However, it's often more cost-effective to install batteries at the same time as the solar panels. We can design systems that are battery-ready for future expansion.
