New Plans Under Discussion to Make Solar Panels Easier to Install for Household Users
Retailers are preparing entry-level kits around £400 as ministers weigh rules that would let plug-in panels connect directly to household sockets.
- Brits are being promised a major shake-up in how home solar works, with ministers proposing plans to make plug-in panels far easier to install by allowing solar systems to be plugged directly into household sockets.
- Retailers are already preparing for demand, with reports that entry-level kits could land at around £400 once rules are updated, fueling curiosity among homeowners and renters alike with DIY options expected to follow.
- Right now, you can build the foundations of a home solar setup for under £200 using discounted components available online, with a current Amazon deal on the EcoFlow Stream 800W microinverter priced at £129.
- Currently, you are still legally obliged to wire the microinverter into your household electrics, a job beyond the range of all but the most competent DIYers, requiring a visit from an electrician.
- A domestic solar setup could save at least a pound a day during sunnier months, while adding a battery ensures energy is stored for later use instead of being pumped back into the grid.
