The Costs Of Solar Panels For New Builds

Knowing how much a solar panel installation will cost is crucial for assessing its financial viability. Initial expenses typically include purchasing the panels and installation fees, which can be pricy, depending on the size of your new build. However, these costs can be offset by long-term savings and potential government grants for solar panels.

Also, with new builds, you can save on installation costs by preemptively incorporating the solar panel into the building’s design. Here’s a snapshot of what solar panels might cost on a new build:

What Are The Benefits of Installing Solar Panel Systems For New Builds?

Long-term savings

Improved energy efficiency and reduced costs

Once you get past the initial investment costs, solar panels provide free electricity. Plus, it mitigates the chances of daily life being interrupted by providing a reliable source of renewable energy in the event of a grid failure.

Compliance with building regulations

New buildings with solar PV panels are better positioned to meet current and future environmental regulations.

Government incentives

Enhanced BREEAM scores

BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) measures a building’s environmental impact. Solar photovoltaic systems can improve this score substantially.

Increased property value

Properties with solar panels are more attractive to buyers because of the promise of lower energy costs and sustainability. This means being able to charge more when selling or renting out the property.

Increased property value

Streamlined installation

Building integrated solar panels is a lot more efficient than retrofitted ones. If you install solar panels like this, you could also save lots of money.
