What to Consider Before Going Solar: A Homeowner’s Guide

Switching to solar energy is a big decision that can bring substantial financial and environmental benefits. Here are the key factors to consider as you decide whether solar power is right for your home.

Assess Your Home’s Solar Potential

The efficiency of solar panels depends heavily on the amount of sunlight your roof receives. Roof angle, shading from trees or nearby buildings, and the orientation of your home all play a role. Homes with ample sunlight exposure can maximize their solar energy generation, providing greater energy savings. FTM Solar can conduct an assessment to determine your home’s solar potential, ensuring you make an informed decision.

Understand the Initial Investment

Solar panel installation is a long-term investment. While the upfront costs can seem high, the savings in energy bills over time make it a cost-effective choice. At FTM Solar, we offer solar systems priced at £1,000 per KWp, ensuring affordable access to renewable energy for homeowners.

Consider Local Incentives and Rebates

Many regions offer incentives to homeowners who install solar panels, such as tax credits and rebates. These can significantly reduce the initial costs and improve the return on investment. Researching available incentives in your area can help you understand the financial benefits of going solar.

Plan for Maintenance and Monitoring

Solar panels are generally low-maintenance, but regular inspections and cleaning can help maintain their efficiency. Some homeowners also choose to monitor their system’s performance with apps or online tools. At FTM Solar, we provide ongoing support and guidance for maintaining optimal panel efficiency.

Decide if You Need Battery Storage

Battery storage allows you to store excess solar energy for later use, adding flexibility and energy independence. While it’s an additional cost, it can be especially valuable during power outages or at night. At FTM Solar, we help homeowners decide if a battery storage solution is a good fit for their needs.
