Batteries enable you to store more energy that your solar panels generate which can be used at night when they aren’t in use during times where you have a high electricity demand. This means even more savings on energy bills, all while keeping the same tariffs!

Thinking About Solar Panels? 

Solar panel electricity systems, also known as photovoltaics (PV), capture the sun’s energy using photovoltaic cells. These cells don’t need direct sunlight to work – they can still generate some electricity on a cloudy day. The cells convert the sunlight into electricity, which can be used to run household appliances and lighting.

The benefits of solar electricity: 

• Cut your electricity bills.

Convert sunlight into electricity to help power your home and appliances. This can lead to a reduction in energy bills.

• Get paid for the electricity you generate.

The UK government’s Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) scheme pays you for the surplus electricity you generate.

• Cut your carbon footprint. 

Generating renewable electricity from solar panels can reduce the amount of electricity your home needs to draw from the grid, helping to reduce your household carbon footprint.

There have been literally hundreds of thousands of PV installs in the UK since it was first introduced in 2010
