FAQs
Dual Fuel Solutions FAQs
Are solar panels worth it?
Yes! As well as being paid for the energy generated by your solar panels, you can also reduce your energy bills by up to 70%. Electricity rates are only expected to continue growing, and a renewable energy source means that you will be able to avoid an annual energy price rise of around 10% a year.
Will I have to use electricity from the grid at night?
This used to be the case, but thanks to the new range of affordable solar battery storage systems, you will be able to store up energy during daylight hours for use through the night. Our clever lithium ion batteries allow you to maximise your energy generation to use outside of daylight hours.
A home battery will mean that you don’t need to rely on energy from the grid when the sun is no longer shining.r
My roof is not south facing – Can I still have solar panels installed?
Absolutely. Solar panel systems work well on east or west orientations, and even on shallow pitched north elevations, solar systems can generate around 70% of a similar roof facing south at 10 degrees. This means properties with a large energy bill and a big north-facing roof can still take advantage of free, clean solar energy.
Do solar panels require planning permission?
In most cases, getting solar panels installed does not require an application for planning permission, as it is included within your Permitted Development Rights. Certain homes and businesses, however, will require planning permission. If you live in a listed building, or within a Conservation Area, then we are always available to provide any guidance or assistance you might need with planning advice and planning permission before the project begins.
How do Solar Panels connect to the electrical supply in my home?
The electricity produced by your Solar Panels is converted from DC (direct current) by the inverter to AC (alternating current), which your home is run on. The electricity is then taken from the inverter via an AC cable to your distribution board, where it is used to power the circuits in your home.
Do I need constant sunshine for my Solar Panels to work?
No, Solar Panels work in all daylight conditions and actually work at their optimum at 10ºc. In fact, if it gets too hot they start to become increasingly inefficient.
Once I have my solar panels installed, do they require much upkeep?
Solar panels don’t have any moving parts and are largely maintenance-free. Over time though, weathering and other environmental factors such as dead leaves and traffic pollution could begin to affect your solar panels so it’s a good idea to have your solar panels checked every few years, just to ensure that they are working as efficiently as possible.
If you do experience any issues, we provide fast and efficient maintenance services throughout the northwest, as well as error diagnostics – usually within an hour of arriving.
Can I force charge my batteries overnight?
Yes. Octopus Energy offer a tariff called “Octopus GO” This allows you to force charge your batteries overnight using an off peak rate. This can then be utilised through the day/evening where the rate to pull from the grid is much higher.
