Solar Arrays

You’re interested in solar, but unsure where to start. Maybe you’ve tried an online calculator that told you a 4kWp solar array would work for you.  And perhaps it will. But do you trust an online calculator which asked you half a dozen somewhat vague questions about how much electricity you use to tell you how to spend the better part of £5,000, plus another £3–4,000 on a battery system?

This guide will explain how to interpret the results of the solar calculator, and how to match the solar calculator’s output to your building’s energy use to maximise the saving you make on your solar system.
