Types of Solar Power Systems for your Home

On Roof Panels

On-roof solar panels offer a powerful and efficient solution to harnessing renewable energy for your home. These panels are mounted directly onto your existing roof, making them a flexible and cost-effective option for those looking to upgrade to solar power.

By choosing on-roof solar, you can enjoy significant energy savings and reduce your carbon footprint without the need for major structural changes.

In-Roof Panels

'In-roof' solar panels, or integrated solar panels, are photovoltaic systems built directly into a building's roof structure, replacing traditional roofing materials.

Ideal for new builds and major renovations, in-roof solar panels provide a weather surface and insulation, all while generating clean, renewable energy

Ground Mount

If you do not have a suitable roof, a ground-mounted system maybe an alternative for you.

Ground mounted solar panels can be angled for optimal sunlight exposure, resulting in higher energy production and increased efficiency. However, they do require significant land space and planning permission

Solar Tracker

How do Solar Panels Work?

The sun emits light, which is made up of tiny particles called photons. Solar Panels are devices which are used to absorb the sun's rays, the photons, and convert them into electricity. Each panel is a collection of solar (or photovoltaic, PV) cells, which are used to generate electricity. An inverter is installed to convert the electricity from DC to AC, which can then be used to power your home or will get stored in your battery.

Combine Solar Panels with Battery Storage for Ultimate Efficiency

Integrate your solar PV system with a cutting-edge battery storage solution and unlock a world of extended benefits for your home. By storing the power your solar panels generate, you gain unparalleled control over your energy consumption.

This synergy optimises your energy use and offers the reassurance that regardless of external factors (varied energy tariffs) or seasonal changes, you're always powered by affordable, eco-friendly energy. Especially as most households experience a surge in energy demands during late afternoons and evenings, having a reservoir of stored energy proves invaluable.

Frequently asked questions

It can be overwhelming when you start to research the pros and cons of a solar power solution, there is so much information available. However, it is important to undertake some research and understand the advantages and disadvantages of installing a solar power system.

Advantages

Significantly reduced electric bills
Insurance against rising energy costs
Cheaper power source
Return on investment
Environmentally friendly, provides clean renewable energy.
Energy independence
No VAT payable until 2027 on solar installations for domestic properties
Low maintenance costs
Can increase home value

Disadvantages

High initial cost
Not financially viable if you plan to move house within the next few years
Small amount of pollution during manufacture, transport, and installation.
The roof of your property may not be suitable for solar panels either due to the tiles, available space, or orientation.

There are currently no grants available, although the Chancellor did abolish VAT on domestic solar installations from April 2022 until April 2027, to encourage homeowners to switch to green energy.

Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) is provided by electricity suppliers, where their customers are paid a standard flat rate to sell their excess electricity back to the grid. It is worth exploring the best provider with the highest flat rate, as these can change. You will also need a smart meter to take advantage of a SEG.

You do not need to have a battery for your solar PV panels to work. However, energy storage allows you to use more of the eco-friendly energy you generate in your home rather than exporting it back to the grid.

If you are out most of the day and use most of your electricity in the evenings, it makes sense to store the power generated in the day in a battery for use at night.

You are also able to store cheaper power from the grid at night to store for use the next day.
