Benefits of Solar Photovoltaic Panels!
  • No need for direct sunlight so power is supplied all year around
  • No maintenance required with expected solar system lifetimes of 30+ years
  • Reduce your electricity bills by up to 100%
  • Get paid to use your electricity through the FIT scheme
  • Earn even more by selling any surplus back to the national grid at higher rates

Are Photovoltaic Solar Panels Suitable for me?

Solar photovoltaic panels can be installed to almost any house, they do require significant roof space.

What are the Costs and Savings Involved? The financial benefits and initial costs for your solar photovoltaic system depends greatly on the size of the system that you require. Examples of standard systems can be found on Solar Prices & Savings below.

In the current climate using a renewable electricity solution like solar photovoltaic panels makes total sense as it dramatically reduces your C02 emissions as well as making sense financially as traditional energy prices increase year on year. To be eligible for these feed in tariffs your solar systems has to be installed by a registered MCS solar panel installer.

Solar Panel Prices and Savings The costs and savings that are associated with installing either Photovoltaic Solar Panels and/or a Solar Heating System are dependant on the quality of the system you choose to install as well your own power requirements. A high quality system from us, using the best solar panels and equipment available, starts for as little as £8000 and means you can take advantage of the feed-in tariff.

A typical domestic photovoltaic system producing 1.85kWp from a 10 panel system has a life expectancy of between 30 and 40 years. Based on these figures, as you can see below, you could recoup all of your initial cost in 12-15 years leaving you to reap the rewards of forward thinking.

  • 1st Year Income from Feed in Tariff
  • Fuel Bill Savings
    (Assuming British Gas as Supplier)
  • £343.13
  • £75.19 per year
  • Yearly Savings
    £418.49

The government has guaranteed the feed-in tariff scheme will run for at least the next 25 years and is index linked so you will have a potential £47,498 tax free (taking into account indexed linking) in income and savings.

You can further increase your savings and yearly income by installing a larger home PV system. For example installing a 22 panel solar system producing 4.04kWp of output would over the guaranteed life of the feed-in tariff bring in a potential of £104.515 tax free (taking into account index linking) & leaving you in profit in less than 10 years.
