How Much Do Solar Panels Cost?

Your solar system's overall cost is shaped by a few crucial elements: the system's capacity, the need for a battery, the specific inverters chosen, and the installation's complexity.

For a smaller system with 8-10 panels, you're looking at an investment of around £6,000-7,000. The silver lining? You could be pocketing annual savings of £600-800.

Considering a 12-15 panel system? That's typically in the £6,500-8,000 range, with potential savings of £700-900 each year. And if you're thinking big with a 17-20 panel system, your outlay would be about £8,000-£9,000, but you could be saving roughly £1,000 annually.

Remember, these figures don't factor in a battery. Aspects like your system's size, whether you want a battery, your choice of inverters, and the installation's complexity can all sway the final cost.
