Increasing The Value of Your Home With Solar Pv
Solar panels are a fantastic investment for your property that allows you to save money on your energy bills and generate your own solar electricity. Investing in solar PV panels is known to increase your overall property value and the amount will depend on a number of factors relating to your system. If you have all of the relevant benefits of a solar panel PV system with a battery storage system – you can expect to see your overall property value increase by around 4%. This is alongside the other benefits of generating cheaper electricity which further makes these systems highly attractive for homeowners. They are also known to make the property more attractive to potential buyers when it’s time to sell. This article covers all of the ways that you increase the value of your home with solar PV.

Key Property Value Increases
There are a number of key-value increases that you can expect when installing your solar panel PV system. To reach the average of a 4% increase in property value, this will depend on:
- The size of your solar PV system. If you have more roof space or other areas to install solar panels then your system will generate more electricity and save more money.
- Ensuring that you have a solar battery system installed. We can retroactively install solar battery storage systems onto current systems as well as install comprehensive solar PV panel systems.
- The orientation of your solar panels. If your solar panels are south-facing then this is the most efficient position and your solar panel system will generate more electricity. The area that your property is located in will also have an impact. If you have higher sunlight hours per year than other areas then your system will again generate more electricity per annum.
- Installation and the system that is selected is key. We are experts in solar panel installation and we only source the best possible systems for our clients. This is vital in ensuring that your solar panels add the maximum value to your property.
Investing in Renewable Energy for Your Property
Renewable energy and electricity are becoming more and more popular as a choice for homeowners. Homeowners are actively looking for ways to reduce their overall environmental impact and the home is a core place to reduce impacts during everyday life. This makes solar panel PV systems an attractive bonus for potential buyers when it’s time to sell your property. In areas where it’s clear that people are investing in solar panels, investing in your own solar panels brings your property in line with other properties in the area and it’s an upgrade that the new homeowners don’t need to organise when they move into the property.
There are a number of different heating systems and other renewable energy systems that work well with solar panel installation. The management of your solar panel PV system is ideally suited for smart homes and you are able to manage your electricity usage and know how much you are saving on your energy bills in real time.
