Switching to Solar Energy will make you more energy efficient, hugely improve your building’s Energy Performance Rating (EPC).
Residential solar refers to the use of solar energy systems in homes or residential properties. Residential solar systems primarily use solar photovoltaic (PV) technology to convert sunlight into electricity.
PV panels are typically installed on rooftops, taking advantage of available sunlight, and minimising the use of valuable space. This allows homeowners to generate their own electricity, reduce energy bills, and contribute to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly energy source.
The popularity of residential solar has grown as the cost of solar technology has decreased and awareness of environmental issues has increased. Many homeowners view solar energy not only to save money but also as a positive contribution to a more sustainable and cleaner energy future.
Residential Solar Benefits
Cost Savings
One of the primary benefits of solar energy for homeowners is the potential for significant cost savings on electricity bills. By generating your own electricity, you can reduce or even eliminate your dependence on the grid, leading to lower monthly expenses. Excess energy can be stored in batteries or fed back into the grid through net metering, potentially earning homeowners’ money back on their electricity bills. While there is an initial installation cost of solar panels, many homeowners experience a positive return on investment over time.
Renewable and Sustainable
Solar energy is a renewable and sustainable source of power. It doesn’t deplete natural resources, and sunlight is abundant, even on a cloudy day making it an environmentally friendly choice for homeowners concerned about reducing their carbon footprint. Solar power is a clean and green energy source that produces electricity without emitting harmful pollutants or greenhouse gases. Choosing solar energy contributes to a reduction in air and water pollution, as well as fighting climate change.
Increased Property Value
Homes equipped with solar panels often have higher property values. Many homebuyers are attracted to energy-efficient homes, and solar installations can be a valuable selling point. Ongoing advancements in solar technology continue to improve the efficiency and affordability of solar panels. As technology progresses, homeowners may benefit from more cost-effective and efficient solar solutions.
Low Maintenance
Solar panel systems generally require minimal maintenance. Regular cleaning and occasional inspections are usually sufficient to keep the system running efficiently. Many solar panel manufacturers offer warranties that last for 20 years or more.
Residential Solar Services
All our engineers are MCS Accredited, so you can rest assured that you are going to get the highest quality of work possible.
Integrated Solar PV Tiles
If you need a new roof, integrated solar tiles can be installed and integrated seamlessly within the roof, so no need for raised panels as they lay flat within the structure.
On-Roof Solar PV Tiles
If you do not wish to replace your whole roof, then this is the option for you! Not all roofs are suitable for the integrated panels, as they need to be angled at the position to take full advantage of the sun’s rays, so again, the raised panels are the ideal option.
Electric Vehicle Charging
We can install EV charging stations at your property, so you can charge your electric vehicle safely and securely.
Battery Storage
Batteries can be used in two ways. You can either store the energy that has been saved for use in your home when you need it, or you can sell it back to the electricity grid. Either way saves you money and Lovatt’s can install a battery in your home for you.
