The benefits of installing solar panels

Cut your bills

After initial installation costs, your energy bills will go down as your house begins to use energy generated by sunlight. It can vary, but we have seen customers cut bills by up to 70%.  

Sell energy to the grid

If you generate extra renewable energy, you sell it back to the grid and earn money. This is done through a Smart Export Guarantee tariff and is dependent on energy suppliers and regulations. Get in touch to find out more. 

Reduce your carbon emissions

Solar power produces no emissions as it generates itself, and overall demonstrates a much smaller carbon footprint than fossil fuels. A typical home could save around one tonne of carbon per year with solar panels, depending on where you live. 

Improve your home’s property value

Like any investment in renewable energy, installing solar panels will increase your home’s property value when you come to sell. Aside from this, buyers know they will pay less for monthly bills which makes the purchase more appealing in the long-term.

Solar panels increase the energy efficiency by converting sunlight into electricity, reducing dependence on conventional power sources and lowering your bills.

FAQs about solar panel installation

Does my roof face the right way?

An unshaded, south-facing roof is ideal for maximum performance. East or west facing roofs still work, but we don’t recommend installing solar panels on a north facing roof. 
A system facing east or west tends to get around 15-20% less energy than one facing directly south. 

Do I need permission to install a solar PV system?

Solar panels on houses are considered ‘permitted development’ and don’t usually need planning permission, however, if you have concerns it’s best to check with your local authority or council. 
To install solar panels in your home, you must register it with the Distribution Network Operator. With Green Home Systems as your solar panel installer, we register and take care of this for you.

Can I put solar panels on a flat roof?

Yes – having a flat roof isn’t an issue.
