Solar Panel Installation Perth: How to Save Money and Reduce Your Carbon Footprint
How Perth Homeowners Slash Up to £800/Year Off Energy Bills (Even on Cloudy Days)
Why Solar Panels Can Withstand Perth’s Overcast Climate
Think solar panels won't work in Scotland's notoriously clouded weather? Don't believe it. Solar technology nowadays can collect direct and diffuse sunlight, and panels will therefore generate electricity even when days are clouded over. Cooler temperatures, such as Perth's, can actually make solar panels work even more efficiently, and thus, even in less sunlight-intensive settings, solar panels make an ideal choice.
Perth gets around 1,350–1,450 daylight hours a year. That’s enough to run a home for most of the year, even in winter when daylight lasts about 4 hours a day. With proper installation, homeowners can save a lot of money and become less reliant on the grid.
Why Go Solar in Perth?
-
Save Money on Energy Bills
Solar panels can save 70% of your electricity cost, and that will vary with your system and your level of consumption. As fuel keeps getting more and more expensive, it could save you several hundred a year. -
Benefit from Government Incentives
The Home Energy Scotland Grant will cover a maximum of £1,500 towards installation costs.
Solar installations will not have to pay VAT at least through 2027
Interest-free loans can cover added expenses, and solar is easier to obtain than ever before. -
Boost your property value
Solar panels can increase a property’s worth between 4–14%, according to studies. That could mean an additional £10,000–£20,000 for an average property in Scotland at resale. -
Energy Independence
Pairing solar panels with a battery bank will allow for storing excess energy for use during high demand times or for use at nighttime. It reduces your consumption of the grid and protects your budget for future price spikes. -
