How Much Do Solar Panels Cost?

Your solar system's overall cost is shaped by a few key elements: the system's capacity, the need for battery integration, the type of inverters chosen, and the intricacies of the installation process.

For a more compact system, say, 8-10 panels, you might need to set aside around £6,000-7,000. The silver lining? This could translate into yearly savings of £600-800.

Considering a 12-15 panel system? That'll typically set you back about £6,500-8,000, but with potential savings of £700-900 each year. As for a larger 17-20 panel system, you're looking at an investment of £8,000-£9,000, but with a potential yearly saving of around £1,000.

Remember, these costs don't factor in a battery. Aspects like the system size you need, whether you want a battery, the type of inverters you pick, and the complexity of the installation can all affect the final cost.
