Solar energy is no longer just a futuristic idea, it’s practical and a cost-effective solution that’s transforming how we power our homes and businesses. With energy price hikes, more people are turning to solar for a more affordable and energy efficient future.
It was reported by Energy Live News that the final months of 2024 saw a surge in solar panel installations in England, reaching 75,000, a significant increase of 7,000 compared to the earlier part of the year. What’s driving this surge in solar adoption and how can you take advantage of funding to make the switch?
Falling costs. Rising savings
Solar energy, once considered impossible for the average homeowner, is now becoming increasingly affordable and accessible. Thanks to advances in manufacturing and funding being readily available, the price of solar energy has gone down, therefore, making it a better financial and more energy efficient choice.
Many who have made the upgrade find that the panels pay for themselves through lower energy bills and potential earnings from selling excess energy back to the grid.
Energy independence
Solar energy provides a higher level of stability than traditional power sources. Because of rises in energy prices and growing concerns about grid stability, having your own source of renewable energy puts you in control.
Pairing solar panels with battery storage means not only can you generate your own electricity you can also store it, helping you have more protection against power outages and fluctuating utility bills.
Funding and incentives
One of the biggest drivers behind the UK’s shift to solar energy is that funding is becoming more available. There are many grants to help low-income households improve their energy efficiency by providing funding for upgrades such as solar panels. If you qualify you could receive free or or partially funded solar panels – helping you cut energy bills without the big upfront costs.
