A typical 8-panel south-facing solar PV system in West Wickham can comfortably exceed the annual electricity consumption of the average UK household, especially when paired with efficient energy usage habits and optional battery storage.
The breakeven period for a solar panel installation can vary depending on several key factors:
In ideal conditions — such as high energy consumption, a well-positioned roof, and battery integration — customers can achieve payback in as little as 4 years.
For homes with lower energy usage or less optimal conditions, breakeven typically falls between 6 to 9 years, with most West Wickham customers seeing returns around 6–7 years.
Battery systems, when combined with smart tariff management, can significantly accelerate ROI even in less-than-perfect conditions.
Here’s a recent installation we completed in the Bromley area:
System Size: 21 x 425W solar panels
Key Components: 8.8kW hybrid inverter, 21.28kWh of battery storage
Installation Type: Integrated panel system on a pre-tiled roof
Total Cost: £22,550 (including full system and installation)
Energy Output: 9,192 kWh annually
Roof Orientation: Combination of easterly and southerly aspects, across both pitched and flat roof areas
Estimated ROI: 19%
Estimated Payback Period: Just over 5 years
This project is a great example of how well-designed systems — even across mixed roof orientations — can still produce excellent results in terms of both energy savings and return on investment.

A typical home needs roughly 15–25m² of usable roof space for a standard residential system. We’ll measure and assess this during your free consultation.
You’ll need freeholder or building management approval for a flat installation. For top-floor flats with roof access, individual systems may still be viable — we can explore options for shared systems too.
Yes — although there are advantages to doing the system all at the same time to plan the most effective solution.
Most residential installations take 1–2 days. More complex setups (e.g., integrated panels, battery systems, or split roofs) may take slightly longer — but we always aim for minimal disruption.
