Here are some real life questions answered properly
-
Answer: It ranges from 1 to 3 days. For domestic installations (2-8 panels), it might only take a day, whereas for business installations (8-30 panels), the process could extend to 2-3 days, depending on the complexity and accessibility of the site.
-
Answer: The installation process includes:
Design and Planning: Tailoring the system size and layout to your energy needs.
Permitting: Securing necessary local permissions.
Installation: Mounting the panels, installing inverters, wiring, and electrical connections.
Connection and Testing: Connecting to the power grid and conducting system tests to ensure everything is functioning properly.
-
Answer: According to Admiral Money research, solar panels can increase a property's value by up to 25%. Environmental legislation is on the way which will force property owners to prioritise a green agenda. In fact, many landlords and property investors are already avoiding properties with low EPC ratings.
-
Answer: The most immediate benefit is the reduction in electricity bills. You can save a significant amount depending on your system size and energy usage, when paired with a battery savings can range from 30% to 90% ! Enquire with us further so we can put a proper estimate together for you.
-
Answer: The direction (or orientation) of your roof significantly affects solar energy production. In the UK, south-facing roofs are ideal as they receive the most sunlight throughout the day. East or west-facing roofs might produce slightly less energy, while north-facing roofs are the least favorable.
-
Answer: Selling electricity back to the grid is facilitated through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) in the UK. As an MCS-certified installer, we ensure your system qualifies for SEG, which requires you to sell your surplus solar energy to an energy supplier at a rate they set. MCS certification confirms that the installation meets certain standards required for SEG eligibility.
-
Answer: Solar panels have a guarantee of 20 years. They won't stop working abruptly after this time but will continue to produce electricity at a reduced efficiency. After 20 years, performance might decrease to 80-85% of their original capacity.
-
Answer: In many cases, installing solar panels on domestic properties is considered a "permitted development" and does not require planning permission, provided the installation respects certain size limits. However, if your property is listed or located in a conservation area, you may need to apply for planning permission.
