Use daylight hours to harness the power of the sun and power your home with green energy.
Your solar battery system will store energy so it can be used by both day and night.
As well as avoiding the need to buy expensive energy, you can trade excess electricity with the power companies.
Have you ever driven along the motorway and spotted fields full of solar panels? Well there’s a good reason why energy companies are throwing these ‘solar farms’ up as quick as they can.
Quite simply, solar is a great investment. There‘s no moving parts, so solar panels rarely break. Solar panels generate electricity from daylight, so you don’t need to be in the Sahara desert to benefit. But most importantly, solar prices have fallen due to mass adoption, now making an installation deliver significant financial returns.
¹ 30-year savings and ² first year savings, in nominal terms, when comparing a new 5.8 kWh battery system and using Social Energy’s tariff, against a standard market tariff. Assumptions: Generation: 3,500 kWh per year, Demand: 3,800 kWh per year, Annual solar panel degradation: 0.5%, Consumption archetype: “in half the day”, Inflation: electricity price (7.03%), export price (2%), CPI (2%).
³ Installing a solar PV and battery system connected to Social Energy’s home energy management system can save, on average, 70% on electricity bills. This assumes the customer currently has no solar PV or battery system, and previous tariff of 16.4 p/kWh, changing to 13.99p/kWh on Social Energy’s tariff.
⁴ 1 and 5 year savings calculated by comparing standard market tariff & consumption (no solar, solar only, solar + battery) and an optimised system using Social Energy’s tariff (solar + battery + Social Energy). Average annual UK energy bill uses the same assumptions. Assumptions: Generation (where applicable): 3,500 kWh per year, Demand: 3,800 kWh per year, Annual solar panel degradation: 0.5%, Battery: New 5.8kWh system, Optimised consumption archetype: “in half the day”, Inflation: electricity price (7.03%), export price (2%), CPI (2%).
⁵ Annual bill calculated using a derived unit rate from Ofgem’s price cap for the October 2020 to March 2021 period and adjusting this for 3,800 kWh consumption. ‘With system’ savings are calculated by deducting the annual savings for an equivalent consumption customer, with a generation capacity of 3,500 kWh per year, as outlined in the 1-5 year savings.
6 Self consumption direct from solar and with the addition of battery storage are calculated based upon a 5.8kWh capacity SolaX Triple Power Battery, with an X1-AC retrofit inverter rated at 3kW. Self consumption estimates utilise information from the Microgeneration Certification Scheme’s (MCS) ‘MGD003 Guidance Note Self Consumption’ document, available to view here – https://mcscertified.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/MGD-003-Guidance-Note-Self-Consumption_.pdf
Page 35 of 51 refers to the calculation of self consumption through Solar PV only and rated capacity of Energy Storage systems, for residential users, with an ‘In Half the Day’ usage profile and an annual solar generation of 3,500kWh and an annual electricity consumption of 3,800kWh
