Benefits of investing in Domestic Solar PV
Energy Independence
Generating your own electricity allows you to be independent from the National Grid and protects you from electricity price changes as you’ll no longer need as much from the grid.
Lower your energy bills
Domestic solar panel installation can help you save money on your electricity bills. By using daylight, you are using a free and powerful energy source, taking the pressure off your household budget.
Get paid for generating electricity
In the summer months or periods where you generate more energy than you’re using, it can either be stored in a battery or sold back to the National Grid. Using the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), you can choose to sell your excess electricity.
Lower your carbon footprint
After installing domestic solar panels, a typical home system could save around 1 tonne of carbon per year, reducing your impact on the environment.
Low maintenance
Solar panels are low maintenance and don’t require yearly services. They are designed to be self-cleaning, as the rain should wash away any debris. However, if you notice your energy output decreasing, your panels may just need a quick spray with the hose.
Protection Against Rising Energy Prices
Energy prices are volatile and have been steadily increasing. Solar panels provide a degree of insulation against these price hikes, as you're generating your own power. This makes your energy costs more predictable.
