Solar services

Solar Yield does not install anything itself. Instead, we explain what each service involves and pass your request to MCS-certified installers. That helps, because clear numbers make quotes easier to compare.

Each city page shows PVGIS output for that area, while the service pages cover cost, sizing and the grid rules. Start with the service you need, then check the figures for your nearest city.

Panel installation suits a sound roof that gets sun for much of the day. A battery, however, depends on how much power you use in the evening and on the gap between your import and export rates. Read both guides before you ask for quotes, because you can request both in one enquiry.

When you send a request, the website operator reviews it and matches it with installers who cover your postcode. No installer receives your details automatically. As a result, you stay in control of who contacts you.

The PVGIS figures on each city page come from the European Commission's solar model. They assume a south-facing roof with no shade, so treat them as a guide for a good roof. Your installer should still give you a written estimate for your own home.

Solar Yield is an independent estimator and enquiry-referral service run with the MoreLeadz lead system. We have no phone line and no published address, so the enquiry form is the only route to us. We never name a best installer.

Check any quote against the MCS register, and ask each firm for its written estimate. Prices, tariffs and grid rules change, so we date every figure we publish.
