Yes. Solar panels generate electricity from daylight, not direct sunlight, so they work year-round in all UK weather conditions. A typical UK system generates 3,500-4,000 kWh annually — even on cloudy days, modern panels produce meaningful output.
The UK Government reduced VAT on solar panels and battery storage to 0% from April 2022. This applies to the supply and installation of qualifying materials. The scheme is currently set to run until 31 March 2027, after which VAT may return to the standard 20% rate.
Quality solar panels typically last 25-30 years. Most come with a 25-year performance warranty guaranteeing at least 80% output at year 25. Inverters usually need replacing after 10-15 years. Your installer will explain the warranties on your specific system.
Yes. Adding a battery storage system boosts your solar self-consumption from roughly 30% up to 70-90%, slashing electricity bills by up to 80% annually. You can install a battery at the same time as your panels or retrofit one later. Mention battery storage when you get your quotes.
The SEG pays you for excess electricity your solar panels export back to the grid. SEG tariffs range from 1p to 15p per kWh depending on the supplier. A typical 4kW system earns around £110-£180 a year from SEG payments on top of your bill savings.
