How Many Solar Panels Do I Need?

Determining how many solar panels you need is a key step in getting the most from your solar installation. Several factors come into play:

Your Energy Usage

Your Energy Usage

The more electricity your household or business consumes, the more panels you’ll need to generate enough power. Checking past energy bills can give a good estimate of your typical usage.

Roof Size and Orientation

Roof Size and Orientation

The available roof space limits how many panels can be installed. South-facing roofs usually capture the most sunlight, while east- or west-facing roofs may require more panels to produce the same energy.

Shading

Shading

Trees, neighbouring buildings, or chimneys that cast shadows can reduce the efficiency of your solar system, potentially requiring extra panels to compensate.

Panel Efficiency

Panel Efficiency

Higher-efficiency panels produce more electricity per square meter, meaning fewer panels might be needed, but these can be more expensive upfront.

If you’re planning to increase electricity use (e.g., adding electric vehicles or heat pumps), it’s wise to install a slightly larger system now.

How Long Do Solar Panels Last?

Solar panels are a long-term investment, designed to provide clean energy and savings for decades. Typically, high-quality solar panels have a lifespan of 25 to 30 years, but with proper care, they can continue producing energy beyond that.

  • Quality of Panels and Installation: Solar panels that meet recognised industry standards are built to last and deliver reliable energy production for decades when installed correctly.

  • Weather and Environment: Solar panels are built to withstand all kinds of weather, from heavy rain to snow and strong winds, but extreme conditions can affect efficiency over time.

  • Maintenance: Regular cleaning and system checks help maintain optimal performance. We offer ongoing support and maintenance services to keep your solar panels running smoothly year after year.

  • Warranties and Guarantees: Most solar panels come with manufacturer warranties covering product defects and performance guarantees that promise a certain level of efficiency over 25 years.

How much do solar panels cost?

Solar panel prices vary depending on system size, roof type, and additional options like battery storage. Our online calculator provides a personalised estimate based on your property and your needs, but most solar panel packages sit between £5,000 £10,000. Our experts will give you an accurate quote tailored to your home.

Do solar panels pay for themselves?

Yes. Over time, the savings on your energy bills typically cover the initial cost of your solar panel system, and after that, you benefit from largely free electricity. Plus with the SEG scheme, you have the opportunity to earn between £300 and £600 per year by selling any excess energy back to the grid.

How long does installation take?

From the second you confirm your quote, we aim to plan the installation within 2-4 weeks. The installation itself usually takes between 1 and 3 days, depending on the system size and property

What government funding is available?

You may be eligible for grants such as ECO4, GBIS, or LA Flex, which can help reduce installation costs. Our team will help you check eligibility and guide you through the application process.

Do I need planning permission?

Most domestic solar panel installations don’t require planning permission unless your property is listed or in a conservation area. If this applies to you, we’ll provide support and advice. Just get in touch.

Can I add battery storage later?

Yes. We can include a 10kw battery system during or after your solar panel installation to store excess energy for later use.
