FAQs
Is solar suitable for my home?
Even though every home is a little different, most UK properties are well‑suited for solar panels. Solar is a great choice if you want to try and lower your energy bills and try and reduce your environmental impact.
The main things that can affect suitability are:
- Obstacles on the roof (like skylights or dormer windows)
- Excessive shading
- Limited roof space
- Poor roof condition
- Panels will need to be mounted at an angle to maximise their energy output.
Do Solar Panels need direct sunlight?
Solar panels are most efficient when they receive direct sunlight. However, they can still produce electricity on cloudy or overcast days and even in indirect or diffused sunlight (luckily for us in the UK).
Do Solar panels work in Winter?
Solar panels still work in winter, they continue generating electricity even though shorter days and a lower sun angle reduce output. A home battery helps you make the most of that energy by storing what your panels produce for use whenever you need it, rather than sending it back to the grid.
Do I need planning permission?
In most cases, you do not need planning permission for solar PV panels as they are covered under permitted development rights. This applies to installations on the roofs of detached, semi-detached, and terraced houses, as well as most types of outbuildings. However, there are exceptions; for instance, if you live in a conservation area or own a listed building, you may need to seek planning permission. Always check local regulations to ensure compliance.
