How much can I save by installing solar panels?
At SR2 Renewables, we often get asked, “How much can I really save by installing solar panels?” The answer depends on a few key factors, including your energy consumption, the size and type of solar system installed, and whether you pair it with battery storage.
Here’s what you can expect:
- Lower energy bills: By generating your own electricity from the sun, you reduce the amount of energy you need to buy from your supplier. Many of our customers see savings of up to 50–70% on their electricity bills in the first year.
- Smart energy usage: When combined with battery storage, solar energy can be stored for use during peak evening hours, further reducing costs and reliance on the grid.
- Long-term investment: Solar panels typically last 25 years or more. Over this period, the cumulative savings can be significant, often repaying the system cost several times over.
- Government incentives & smart tariffs: Certain schemes, like the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) or EV charging integration, can provide additional financial benefits.
How long do solar panels last?
At SR2 Renewables, we install high-quality solar panels designed to perform efficiently for decades. We carefully select the best products for each project, ensuring reliability, efficiency, and durability.
These panels are built to stand the test of time:
- Durability: Engineered to withstand harsh weather, extreme temperatures, and everyday wear and tear.
- Performance Warranty: Panels come with a 30-year performance warranty, ensuring they retain a significant portion of their rated efficiency over this period.
- Product Warranty: Panels include a 25-year product warranty, covering any defects or issues with materials or workmanship.
By choosing SR2 Renewables, you can be confident your solar system will provide reliable energy generation for decades, using panels that maximise savings, minimise maintenance, and provide long-term peace of mind.
Will solar panels work on cloudy days?
Yes! Solar panels still generate electricity even when it’s cloudy. Modern panels are designed to capture both direct sunlight and diffuse light, meaning they can produce energy whenever there is daylight.
- Reduced, but not zero: On overcast days, energy generation may be lower — typically 30–70% of a sunny day’s output, depending on cloud cover.
- Consistent performance: Over the course of a year, cloudy days are naturally balanced by sunny periods, so your system still delivers significant energy savings and returns.
- Optimised with technology: Pairing your solar panels with battery storage or smart energy systems ensures that energy generated during daylight, even on cloudy days, is stored for use when you need it most.
At SR2 Renewables, we use high-quality panels and advanced inverters designed to perform efficiently in all weather conditions, giving you reliable energy and maximum savings, rain or shine.
What is the installation process like?
At SR2 Renewables, we make installing solar panels smooth, efficient, and hassle-free. Here’s how it works:
- Initial Consultation & Site Survey:
Our team visits your property to assess your roof, energy needs, and orientation. We discuss your goals and provide a tailored proposal, including system size, potential savings, and optional battery storage. - Design & Planning:
Using precise measurements and advanced design software, we create a system optimised for performance, aesthetics, and compliance. We also handle all necessary approvals for grid connection so you can sit back and relax. - Preparation – Scaffolding Installation:
A few days before the main installation, we set up scaffolding to ensure safe and efficient work on your roof. This step also helps protect your property and makes the installation process quicker and smoother. - Roofing & Electrical Installation:
Our skilled roofing and electrical teams carry out the installation with precision. Depending on the size of your system, this typically takes 1–3 days. Every panel, inverter, and cable is carefully installed to ensure maximum efficiency and long-term reliability. - Commissioning & Testing:
Once installed, we rigorously test the system to confirm it’s performing perfectly. We’ll guide you through how to monitor your energy production and savings, ensuring you’re confident using your new system. - Ongoing Support & Maintenance:
SR2 Renewables provides long-term support, including warranty advice, system upgrades, and maintenance tips, so your panels continue to perform efficiently for decades.
Bottom line: From the first survey to the final switch-on, we focus on quality, safety, and minimal disruption, delivering a solar system that’s reliable, efficient, and designed to maximise your savings for years to come.
Do I need a battery for my solar system?
No — a solar system will work perfectly without a battery. You can generate your own electricity and feed any excess back to the grid, benefiting from lower energy bills and potential export payments.
However, adding a battery storage system can unlock even greater benefits:
- Store your own energy: Use the electricity your panels generate during the day when you need it most, such as evenings or early mornings.
- Maximise savings: Reduce reliance on grid electricity and make the most of cheap or free solar energy.
- Prepare for the future: A battery allows you to easily integrate EV charging or expand your system in the future.
- Energy independence: Even during grid outages, a battery can keep essential circuits running, giving you peace of mind.
At SR2 Renewables, we pair our solar systems with high-quality batteries designed to last decades and seamlessly integrate with your panels. While not essential, a battery is an investment that increases self-sufficiency, flexibility, and long-term savings.
