Solar PV (photovoltaic) panels convert daylight from the sun into electricity that can be used in your home. During the day, the electricity generated helps power your appliances and reduces the amount you need to buy from the grid. Any unused energy may be exported back to the grid or stored in a battery for later use.
Many homes across the UK are suitable for solar PV, even if the roof is not perfectly south-facing. Factors such as roof space, orientation, shading, and energy use all influence suitability. As part of your free assessment, RetrofitWorks reviews these details to provide clear, honest guidance on whether solar is likely to work well for your property.
Yes. Solar panels generate electricity from daylight rather than direct heat, which means they continue to work on cloudy days and throughout the year. While output is higher in summer, modern systems are designed to perform effectively in UK conditions.
The cost of a solar PV system depends on factors such as system size, roof type, and whether battery storage is included. RetrofitWorks focuses on providing clear, realistic pricing guidance based on your home, so you can understand expected costs before making any decisions.
Savings vary depending on your energy use, system size, and whether a battery is installed. Most households reduce the amount of electricity they buy from the grid, which can lead to meaningful long-term savings. Your personalised assessment will outline the potential savings range for your specific home.
In many cases, yes. Eligible households may receive payments for excess electricity exported to the grid through approved export schemes. The value of these payments varies by provider, and RetrofitWorks can explain how this may apply to your situation.
Battery storage is optional. It allows more of the electricity you generate to be used in your home rather than exported. Some homeowners choose to install a battery later, and your advisor can explain the most suitable approach based on your energy habits and budget.
The number of panels depends on available roof space, your electricity usage, and the design of the system. Rather than using a one-size-fits-all estimate, RetrofitWorks provides guidance tailored to your property to ensure the system is appropriately sized.
South-facing roofs typically produce the most electricity in the UK, but east- and west-facing roofs can also perform well. The roof’s angle and any shading nearby will influence output. A suitability review helps determine the realistic performance for your specific roof.
Installations are delivered by trusted local professionals who meet recognised certification and quality standards. RetrofitWorks carefully vets installation partners and coordinates the process to help ensure a consistent, reliable customer experience.
