Find answers to common questions about solar panels, battery storage, installation, and costs.
We understand that investing in solar is a big decision. Below are some of the most common questions we get from homeowners and businesses across West Sussex.
The cost of a solar panel system depends on the size of the system, your property, and your energy usage. Most domestic systems typically range from £5,000 to £10,000+. We provide tailored quotes to ensure you get the best value for your investment.
Savings vary depending on your energy usage and system size, but many customers significantly reduce their electricity bills. Adding battery storage can further increase savings by allowing you to use more of your own generated energy.
Battery storage isn’t essential, but it can greatly improve your system’s efficiency. It allows you to store unused energy during the day and use it in the evening, reducing reliance on the grid.
Most domestic solar installations are completed within 1–3 days, depending on the system size and complexity. We always aim to minimise disruption and complete work efficiently.
In most cases, solar panel installations fall under permitted development and do not require planning permission. We’ll advise you if any permissions are needed for your property.
MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) is a nationally recognised quality assurance standard. It ensures your system is installed correctly and allows you to access certain incentives and export tariffs.
We are based in Chichester and cover West Sussex and surrounding areas, providing solar installations for both residential and commercial properties.
Most properties are suitable for solar, but factors such as roof orientation, shading, and structure will affect system design. We carry out a full assessment to ensure your system performs efficiently.
