[The energy bills crisis has prompted
a big rise in demand for solar panels.
Just over 3,000 solar installations are being
carried out every week, according to
trade association Solar Energy UK,
up from 1,000 a week in July 2020.
One provider said this month it had
seen enquiries about solar panels rise tenfold.
"More solar panels are being put on
British roofs than ever before,"
said Chris Hewett,
chief executive of Solar Energy UK.
The fact that renewable energy helps protect
the planet has always made it an attractive option.
The way they work is simple: the panels absorb
sunlight through photovoltaic cells which
convert it into electricity that can be
flowed through your home, or into a battery.
The process significantly reduces the amount
of electricity you will need from the network.
People who have successfully installed
solar panels report saving hundreds
of pounds on electricity bills.]
[The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors
suggests a standard solar panel system
costs between £9,000 to £11,700,
while Solar Energy UK lists the cost for
a "typical" 3.1kWp system for a three-bed
house as £3,925.]
