Are solar panels worth it in 2025? For most Surrey homes…absolutely. With energy bills still climbing and sustainability high on the agenda, many Surrey homeowners are asking the same question: are solar panels still worth it in 2025? The simple answer is yes – solar remains one of the best ways to cut your energy costs, boost your property’s value, and reduce your carbon footprint.
We’ve seen how far solar technology has come. Modern solar PV systems are more efficient, more affordable, and more reliable than ever before, making 2025 the perfect time to invest in renewable energy for your home.
Solar panels today generate more clean electricity with less sunlight, performing efficiently all year round – even in cloudy weather. As technology has improved, so has the return on investment for homeowners.
We install high-performance solar panels from leading global brands like JA Solar, Jinko, Canadian Solar, Viridian, and GSE. These trusted names deliver excellent power output, durability, and sleek aesthetics that complement Surrey homes beautifully.
Pairing your panels with a solar battery storage system such as GivEnergy, Tesla Powerwall, or MyEnergi Libbi means you can store excess energy and use it when you need it most. It’s the key to reducing your reliance on the National Grid and keeping your home powered day and night.
Electricity prices have become increasingly unpredictable, which makes energy independence more valuable than ever. A solar PV system allows you to produce your own renewable power, meaning you’ll use less from the grid and see significant long-term savings on your electricity bills.
With solar battery storage, you can take this further, storing daytime energy for use in the evenings or during peak tariff hours. Many of our Surrey customers have seen their energy bills drop dramatically, alongside the peace of mind that comes with being less affected by market price rises.
In 2025, energy-efficient homes are in high demand. Solar panels can make your home more attractive to buyers, improve your Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating, and demonstrate genuine eco-conscious living.
A home powered by solar energy offers lower running costs, increased energy efficiency, and future-proof appeal. All of which can help boost property value in a competitive Surrey housing market.
Even though the government’s Feed-in Tariff ended, the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) continues to reward households for the clean electricity they export back to the grid. Energy suppliers pay you for your unused solar energy, helping offset installation costs and improving your system’s return on investment.
Different suppliers offer varying rates, so it’s worth exploring which tariff works best for your solar setup and we can help guide you through the options.
