The scheme allows you to exchange your old, inefficient solar panels for new, high-performance ones. We assess the condition of your current panels and provide you with an upgraded system, ensuring a seamless transition to cleaner and more efficient energy.
No! The Solar Panel Upgrade Scheme ensures that you can continue to claim Feed-in Tariff payments for the renewable energy you generate and contribute to the grid.
Our experts will conduct a survey to assess the condition and efficiency of your existing panels. Generally, if your panels are outdated, inefficient, or aesthetically unpleasing, you are likely eligible for the trade-in.
We are committed to environmentally responsible practices. Your old solar panels will be recycled or disposed of following industry guidelines to minimize environmental impact.
By upgrading to newer solar panels, you can experience increased energy efficiency, leading to reduced electricity bills. Additionally, you continue to qualify for Feed-in Tariff payments, contributing to a quicker return on investment.
When upgrading your solar system, it’s important to choose the right installer, experience in this sector is essential. If you’re looking to upgrade your system leave your details and we’ll match you with an experienced installer in your area.
As of 2024, the UK has more than 1.3 million solar PV systems installed across homes, businesses, and solar farms, generating clean energy nationwide.
Solar PV in the UK has helped avoid over 20 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions in the last decade, equivalent to taking around 4.5 million cars off the road for a year.
Since 2014, solar panels have saved UK households and businesses over £5 billion in electricity costs, with rooftop solar alone generating billions of kWh of free, renewable energy each year.
Research from iChoosr, a company advancing renewable energy adoption, shows that nearly 75,000 solar panels were installed in England during the second half of 2024.
Millions of households in Great Britain will see higher energy bills starting in April, as Ofgem, the energy regulator, announced that the energy price cap
The UK government will soon require builders to install solar panels on most new homes in England, according to Energy Secretary Ed Miliband. The new

| Feature | Older Panels (Pre-2015) | Modern Panels (Post-2020) |
|---|---|---|
| Efficiency | 15–18% | 20–23% |
| Technology | Polycrystalline, basic monocrystalline | Advanced monocrystalline, PERC, bifacial, thin-film |
| Durability | 25-year lifespan | 30–40-year lifespan with improved warranties |
| Aesthetics | Bulkier, visible frames | Sleeker, low-profile designs |
| Smart Integration | Limited or none | Smart inverters, app-based monitoring, battery-ready |
| Cost per Watt | Higher due to less mature tech | Lower due to economies of scale and tech advances |
| Environmental Impact | Higher carbon footprint in manufacturing | Improved sustainability and recyclability |
You can modify your accredited installation to either increase or decrease its capacity as long as the total installed capacity (TIC) of the installation and any extensions does not exceed 5 Megawatts (or 2 Kilowatts for micro-CHP).
However, you cannot receive FIT payments in respect of electricity generated from any additional capacity unless the extension was commissioned before 15 January 2016.
We’ll check your current system and roof suitability.
We recommend the best panels for your needs and budget.
Our certified engineers handle the upgrade with minimal disruption.
Enjoy increased generation, lower bills, and higher FiT payments.

Did you install solar panels in the UK during the early days of the Feed-in Tariff (FiT) scheme? While your system has served you well, solar technology has advanced dramatically—today’s panels are far more efficient, meaning you could be generating more electricity, saving more on bills, and earning higher FiT payments.
Out with the old, in with the new – the Smiths’ upgraded panels power their home with cutting-edge technology.
The Smith family installed their first solar panels over a decade ago, hoping to lock in energy savings. But as the years passed, they noticed a steady increase in their electricity bills and a drop in their solar system’s output. Their once-shiny panels had become dull, showing signs of weathering and age.
After a complimentary solar health check, it was clear: their system was producing far less than its original capacity. They decided to invest in new high-efficiency solar panels, which came with a 25-year performance warranty and enhanced output even on cloudy days. The installation team made the switch in a single day, minimizing disruption.
Now, the Smiths are generating up to 30% more energy than before. They’re saving hundreds every year, their energy bills are lower, and they feel great knowing their carbon footprint is reduced. Plus, the new panels look sleek on their roof and add to the value of their home.
What Customer Says:
“We were shocked by the difference. Our bills dropped immediately, and it feels good to be running on clean, reliable solar power again.”
