How Solar Panels Work
Solar panels harness the power of the sun to power your home. Solar photovoltaic panels are installed onto the roof of your property and capture UV rays from the sun. An Inverter then converts this power into current that can be used to power your appliances. Any surplus energy can be stored using a battery system or sold back to your energy company.
What are the benefits of Solar Panels & Battery Storage?
Long Term Investment
Solar panels can perform for over 25 years and with the battery and inverters lasting up to 15 years a solar PV system can generate power to your home for many years to come.
Clean Energy
The energy that is generated from your solar panels provides your home with clean energy, reducing the need to pull from the grid.
Lower Energy Bills
By generating your own power and reducing the need to draw from the national grid, solar panels will in turn lower your energy prices. The panels can work all year round even in the winter months. Our customers have seen up 35% reductions in their energy costs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many solar panels do I need for a 3-bedroom house UK?
The number of solar panels needed for a 3-bedroom house in the UK can vary depending on factors such as energy consumption, roof size, and location. On average, a typical three-bedroom house may require around 10 solar panels. However, it's best to consult with a solar provider or use a solar calculator to get a more accurate estimate based on your specific circumstances.
How much can you sell electricity back to the grid for UK?
The amount you can sell electricity back to the grid for in the UK depends on the specific scheme you are enrolled in. Under the previous Feed-in Tariff scheme, the rates varied based on the size and type of system. However, as of 2020, the Feed-in Tariff has ended and been replaced by the Smart Export Guarantee, where rates are set by individual energy suppliers. It is advisable to check with energy suppliers for the current rates and terms.
Do solar panels work in winter?
Yes, solar panels still generate electricity in winter. While it's true that the amount of sunlight is generally lower in winter compared to summer, solar panels can still generate electricity from daylight, even on cloudy days. However, it is important to note that the overall energy production may be reduced in winter due to shorter days and less sunlight.
How do solar panels work?
Solar panels work by converting sunlight into electricity through a process called the photovoltaic effect. The panels consist of multiple solar cells made of semiconductor materials that generate direct current (DC) electricity when exposed to sunlight. This DC electricity is then converted into alternating current (AC) electricity using an inverter, which can be used to power homes and businesses.
How long does it take for solar panels to pay for themselves UK?
The payback period for solar panels in the UK can vary depending on factors such as the cost of installation, energy usage, and available incentives. On average, it can take around 5-10 years for solar panels to pay for themselves in the UK.
