the benefits of solar and battery storage
greater energy autonomy
self-consumption
Solar panels with battery storage enable homeowners in Telford to capture and store energy not used during peak sunlight hours. This stored energy can be utilised in the evenings, overnight, or during cloudy days, significantly reducing dependence on the national grid. This is particularly advantageous during power outages or high energy cost periods.
increased financial savings
reduced energy bills
Utilising stored solar energy during times of peak tariffs can help you bypass higher energy costs, substantially lowering your electricity bills. Over time, the savings generated can help recoup the initial investment in the solar and battery systems.
potential for revenue
You can also earn additional income by selling excess energy back to the grid through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), which compensates you for the surplus solar energy you contribute.
increased property value
attractiveness to buyers
Homes in Telford equipped with solar panels and battery storage are often more appealing to potential buyers, who value energy efficiency and potential cost savings. This can significantly boost the property’s resale value.
desirability in market
As energy costs continue to escalate and environmental awareness grows, the demand for homes with renewable energy solutions is expected to increase.
