Thinking of Adding Solar Panels to Your Roof?

Learn how solar works with Candere Solutions: 

  • What government grants are available for solar panel installation?
    London homeowners have several options to make solar panel installation more affordable. The ECO4 scheme offers free solar panels to eligible residents based on location or income criteria. Plus, there's a 0% VAT rate on solar equipment, saving you around £2,850 on a typical 4kW system. Don't forget the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) – it lets you earn money by selling excess energy back to the grid, potentially adding £45 to £80 to your pocket annually. For the most up-to-date information on solar grants in London and surrounding areas like Essex and Watford, check the official government websites or give us a call for personalized advice.
  • Are solar panels worth it in the UK?
    Absolutely. For homeowners in London, Essex, and Watford, solar panels are a smart investment. Our region gets enough sunlight to make solar energy efficient and cost-effective. You'll see noticeable savings on your electricity bills, especially with rising energy costs. Plus, solar panels boost your property value and help reduce your carbon footprint. With minimal upkeep needed, they're a hassle-free way to embrace green energy in our local communities.
  • What maintenance do the solar PV systems require?
    Generally speaking, solar PV systems are low-maintenance! However, living in an urban area like London, Essex, or Watford comes with unique challenges. Birds can be a nuisance, so we recommend installing bird guards to prevent nesting and droppings from affecting your panels. Regular roof cleaning is also important to keep your system running efficiently and protect your roof's integrity.
  • Will solar panels work during cloudy or rainy days?
    Yes, they do. While London's weather is often unpredictable, solar panels continue to generate electricity even on overcast days. They use diffuse sunlight, so they're still effective during cloudy or rainy weather, just less efficient than on sunny days. So don't let our local weather deter you – solar power remains a smart choice for properties in these areas.
  • How do solar panels work?
    Solar panels use photovoltaic (PV) cells to convert sunlight into electricity. When light hits these cells, it excites electrons, creating an electric current. This process works even on the UK's cloudy days, though less efficiently than in full sun. The electricity generated powers your home, reducing your reliance on the grid and lowering energy bills. It's a simple technology that's helping property owners across London, Essex, and Watford to save money and go green, regardless of our varied weather.
  • How much does it cost to install solar panels in the UK?
    The cost of installing solar panels varies based on factors such as system size, specific installation requirements, and your location. Larger systems or installations with additional features may incur higher costs. For a personalized quote and to discuss your solar panel installation, contact our experts for a bespoke consultation.
  • How much will solar help me save on electricity bills?
    Solar panels can significantly reduce electricity bills for homeowners in London and neighboring areas by generating clean energy from sunlight. The amount saved depends on factors like energy consumption, system size, and local sunlight conditions. It’s possible for property owners in these areas to save up to £1,000 annually with a standard solar panel system.
