Solar Panel Installation FAQs

Are solar panels worth it in the UK?

Yes—solar PV can cut electricity bills, reduce exposure to price rises and lower carbon emissions. Actual savings depend on your roof, usage and tariff. We provide a tailored proposal with predicted generation (kWh/yr), savings and payback for your property. See real outcomes in our case studies and read our homeowner overview: The Complete Homeowners Guide to Solar Panels.

We size systems from your annual consumption (kWh), roof area and budget. As a guide, many homes fit 3–6 kWp (around 8–16 modern panels), but the “right” size depends on your usage and export tariff. For a deeper explanation, see our Ultimate Guide to Installing Solar PV or Contact our Nottingham solar installers today!

Generation is measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh) and varies by system size, orientation, shading and location. We model your predicted annual yield using industry methodology and include it in your proposal. For panel choices and performance tips, see Choosing the Right Solar Panel.

Yes. PV produces electricity from daylight, not heat. Output is lower in winter due to shorter days and sun angle, but cool temperatures actually help panel efficiency. Our proposals show monthly generation so you know what to expect year-round. Explore battery options to shift winter daytime generation into the evening: Solar Battery Solutions for Homes.

A battery increases self-consumption (using more of what you generate) and can reduce peak-time imports. Value depends on your usage pattern, tariff and battery size. We’ll model payback both with and without storage so you can decide. See solar home battery systems or commercial battery storage systems.

Yes—pairing PV with a smart charger lets you prioritise surplus solar for charging. Typical UK home chargers are ~7 kW AC; workplaces may use 11–22 kW AC and rapid DC for fleets. Learn more: Smart EV Charging for Homes and commercial EV charging stations.

Most domestic and commercial rooftop systems fall under permitted development. Exceptions include listed buildings, conservation areas or certain flat-roof/ground-mount designs. We advise at survey stage and can assist with any applications. Read more in our homeowners guide or ask us via Contact Us.

We look at alternative arrays such as ground-mount, carports or different roof elevations. For businesses, see design ideas in Solar Solutions for Modern Constructions and Solar for Smart Industry. For homes, see Solar for Modern Constructions.

Most homes install within 1–2 days; commercial projects vary with size and access. We handle scaffolding, electrical works and DNO notifications, and we keep your site tidy. See how we deliver on complex builds in our case studies and Expert Solar Fitting.

Typical packages include module performance warranties (often 25 years), product warranties on modules and inverters, and an installation workmanship guarantee. We specify exact terms in your quote. Learn how we choose components in Expert Solar Installation Services and Renewable Power for Companies.

Sophie Sedan

Spectrum energy recently installed an EV charger, solar panels and storage battery. I couldn't be happier with the service, communication and quality of the product. It's really user friendly with the customer app so I can keep up to date with how much solar I'm generating.

Sophie Sedan

Al and Vicki Holt

Spectrum Energy Systems installed our home Aiko solar panels/LG battery/Solar Edge inverter and we have been really impressed with the level of service. The job was completed quickly, they responded immediately to any questions we had, and the installation was professional and thorough. The team was knowledgeable and efficient.

Al and Vicki Holt

Stephen Herring

Highly recommended. I thought I would be better with a big established company (no names but eight legged sea creature). Spectrum Energy Systems came highly recommended and they've proven why. Spent ages on emails and phone calls with other companies sending information and when a surveyor eventually arrived found so many obstacles.

Stephen Herring

Gail Liley

I had two quotes and went with Charlie. He kept in touch and followed up with all my queries and getting to understand how everything works. Fitting the panels and equipment was very straight forward.

Mitchell Russon

I recently had a 4kw home solar system installed by Spectrum Energy Systems and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. The team was professional, knowledgeable, and transparent. They thoroughly explained the process and benefits. The installation was efficient, respectful of my property, and completed ahead of schedule. Since installation, I've noticed a significant decrease in my electricity bills. Highly recommended!

Andy Stafford

Fantastic experience from start to finish! The team at Spectrum provided clear, honest advice and helped me understand my solar options without any confusion. The installation was smooth, professional, and completed on time. The difference in my energy bills has been incredible! Their post-installation support was also excellent—checking in to ensure everything was working perfectly. Highly recommend their services to anyone considering solar energy!

Luke Jackson

Brilliant company to deal with. From the initial chat about my requirements to installation, I can’t fault one thing. I found Solar somewhat a minefield with some people trying to bamboozle me with information but Spectrum helped explain it in simple terms. The installation was faultless and they even called me 2 days later just to check everything was running OK. 10/10 team. Would definitely recommend.

Troy Hackett

Exceptional service and professionalism from Spectrum! The team guided me through the entire process, making everything easy to understand. The installation was seamless, and the quality of work was outstanding. I’ve already noticed a significant drop in my energy costs. Plus, their after-sales support has been fantastic—they genuinely care about their customers. I couldn’t be happier with my decision to go solar with Spectrum!
