When you speak with our team of solar panel installers, we’ll be able to give you more information about comparing the cost of solar panels with the cost of energy. Keep in mind that across the UK, four in five dwellings use mains gas for central heating. Gas, which has increased in price by 129% in 2022. The price of energy increased roughly 66%.
If you’re considering solar, you might be considering your carbon footprint, for good reason. For example, households currently account for 26% of greenhouse gas emissions across the UK. That’s not surprising when you consider that in only 15% of local authority, districts have a majority of households above a C rating.
Put another way, in 85% of local authority districts, over half the households are rated below C. That could be you. Take a look at our map to see the energy efficiency of your area.
When you choose a solar panel installer like Ecostar Solar, you’re choosing to invest in solar energy.
Unlike fossil fuels, solar panels are long lasting, providing energy reliably for years to come.
Solar panels and batteries are an investment in the long term energy efficiency of your home. After ten years, most solar panels remake the initial investment.
Climate change isn’t the only reason to choose solar panels and batteries. In the past few years, we’ve seen that dependence on fossil fuels means the market is highly susceptible to foreign suppliers and market fluctuations.
In the past twenty years, there have been numerous schemes to support homeowners who are trying to transition to greener energy.
Eco-Star Solar, is an accredited solar panel installer, with both MCS and HIES. That way you know that you’re working with an approved contractor that has insurance backed guarantees.

Solar panels can work in the shade, however they have reduced efficiency, and being underneath trees can dirty them. Our solar panel installers will make sure that we assess your roof for shade and the best angle for maximum sunlight.
Solar panel installers, like Ecostar Solar, will attach mounting systems create a scaffold that is attached to the roof for the solar panels to rest on.
AC, or alternating current, is the electricity that your solar panels will produce. However, AC must be converted to DC for your home use. If you are selling back to an energy supplier, you will sell back AC.
Your solar panel installer will be able to explain how the inverter works within your system.
When you contact us, we can help you find more ways to reduce your energy consumption. We typically recommend that you consider several crucial areas of your home: your level of insulation and the highest energy consuming products in the household.
Solar panels and battery storage can help cover some of your energy consumption, depending on the number of panels that you install (also known as an array).
Choose the solar panel installer that’s right for you.
