Why are UK residents rushing to take advantage of this solar 'advantage' before 2027?

How are things going?

Despite the vagaries of the UK weather, smart home owners can use solar panels that rely on daylight rather than relying on sunlight. The cost of solar panels has dropped by more than 30% in the last few years, significantly reducing the initial cost of solar energy for Brits.

• The UK government has introduced a zero-rate VAT on solar panels.
• Homeowners can now save hundreds of pounds on their solar installations.
• Brits are eager to take advantage of the perk as the offer expires in 2027.

Solar: The future of affordable electricity

The UK Government expects solar energy to become the second most affordable source of electricity in the UK in the coming years. A recent report from the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy looks at the costs of upcoming energy projects and finds that solar installations can offer significant savings compared to traditional gas systems.

• No VAT. A homeowner could save significant amounts on solar panels in 2025 thanks to the recent reduction in VAT.
• Lower upfront costs. Modern technology and increasing competition have driven down the price of solar panels, making them affordable for millions of people in the UK.
• Cut your energy bills – sunlight is free and once you buy your panels you can enjoy the benefits. The savings could amount to hundreds of pounds each year!
• Reduce your carbon footprint. Solar power is one of the greenest ways to generate electricity.
