The cost of a solar panel installation can vary depending on a number of factors, including the size of the system, the type of panels used, and the complexity of the installation. At DNK Renewables Ltd, we offer competitive pricing and financing options to help make solar energy more affordable for our customers.

The timeline for a solar panel installation can vary depending on the size and complexity of the system, as well as other factors such as weather conditions and permitting requirements. Typically, we can complete a residential solar installation in a single day, but if you have large energy needs that also include battery backup, then it could be longer.

The average workable lifespan of a solar panel is around 25-30 years. Bear in mind that even at this stage, most solar panels will still retain around 80% of their original power output. With proper maintenance and care, however, some panels can last even longer. At DNK Renewables Ltd, we provide our customers with guidance on how to properly care for their solar panels to ensure maximum lifespan and energy output.

Whether or not solar panels will work on your roof depends on a number of factors, including the orientation and pitch of your roof, the amount of shade it receives, and for much older properties, the structural integrity of the roof.

At DNK Renewables Ltd, we offer a free solar assessment to determine if your roof is suitable for solar panel installation.

The amount of energy generated by a solar panel system can vary depending on a number of factors, including the size of the system, the location of the panels, and the amount of sunlight the panels receive.

On average, a residential solar panel system can generate anywhere from 3,000 to 5,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity per year.

During the Spring and Summer months, a typical system will meet the energy needs of the average household. In Autumn and Winter, most UK households supplement solar production with power from the Grid.

This is why we will often recommend adding battery backup to your solar panel installation, so you can store any excess daytime energy to be used when the Sun isn't shining.

The added advantage of a solar backup battery is that you can charge it up via cheap rate electricity during times when the weather is set to be cloudy, and then use that energy the following day, often at 50% (or less), of the cost of daytime energy tariffs.

The only situations where a battery backup isn't optimal, from a cost perspective, is when a household's annual usage is very low (typically less than 1500kWh annual usage), in which case a small rooftop solar panel installation is perfectly adequate.
