Are Solar Panels a Good Fit For My Home or Business??

Paignton, and in fact, the entire English Riviera, including Torquay, and Brixham, make up one of the sunniest areas of the UK, and therefore one of the best places to install solar in England. With an average of around 1,800 hours of direct sun per year, a majority of roofs suitable for solar panels, and low fog and cloud coverage through most of the year, Paignton is an excellent fit for anyone who wants to install panels. While exact rates vary depending on your specific roof and the size of the solar array, most panel systems pay off within 6-7 years or less.

Solar Efforts in Paignton

One of Paignton’s largest solar installations is in fact, not on one building, but 45. A 2011 decision to make the city, and the entire Torbay area, green, included the installation of solar panels on most of the major public buildings in the area. The project is expected to earn an eventual net £1.5 million over 25 years, including some £640,000 in reduced energy costs for the buildings.

With homes, schools, and businesses around Paignton following suit, the city has a number of solar panel installations, including PV power and solar thermal. Local developments are also adding solar installations to houses, which means that many new developments are at least partially green.
