Quick Facts
UK Home Solar Adoption
More than 1.7 million* homes across the UK have solar panel installations, with numbers continuing to grow each year.
Solar panels generate electricity even on cloudy days, making them a practical renewable energy solution throughout the UK.
Installing solar panels can reduce the amount of electricity you buy from the grid, although the level of savings depends on factors such as your property’s location, roof orientation, electricity usage and system size.
A typical domestic solar PV system can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by around one tonne each year*, depending on where you live in the UK.
Eligible households can receive payments for exporting surplus electricity through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG). Export payments vary depending on the energy supplier and tariff selected.
These figures show that more homeowners across the UK are choosing solar as a practical way to generate their own renewable electricity and reduce their reliance on the National Grid.

Lower Your Energy Bills
Generating your own electricity means you may need to buy less electricity from the grid. The amount you could save depends on factors including your home’s electricity usage, roof orientation, system size, battery storage and export tariff. We can provide a tailored estimate based on your property and energy requirements.
Reduce Your Carbon Footprint
Solar panels generate renewable electricity without producing carbon emissions during operation. By using more of the electricity you generate yourself, you can reduce your home’s reliance on electricity generated from fossil fuels. A typical home solar PV system can save around one tonne of carbon dioxide each year.
Make Better Use of the Energy You Generate
Adding battery storage allows you to store surplus electricity generated during the day for use later, such as during the evening when your household demand is often higher. This can increase the proportion of solar electricity you use in your home, reducing the amount you need to import from the grid. The financial benefit depends on your electricity usage and tariff.
Earn Money by Exporting Surplus Electricity
If your solar PV system is eligible, you can sign up to a Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) tariff and receive payments for electricity you export back to the grid. Export rates vary between suppliers, so comparing tariffs can help you maximise the value of your exported electricity.
