I thoroughly recommend them to anyone.

Benefits of Solar in Oxted

Installing solar in Oxted brings many advantages. Here’s how you could benefit:

  • Save on electricity bills

    Generate your own daytime electricity and rely less on the grid. With a battery, you can store surplus power for evening use — reducing your overall reliance on grid electricity.

  • Use Oxted’s good sunshine potential

    With around 1,600–1,800 sunlight hours a year in Surrey, even overcast days often yield usable daylight. Modern solar panels perform well in diffuse light too, making solar viable through much of the year.

  • Enhance energy resilience

    Solar plus storage offers a reliable backup during outages or peak-time price hikes — giving you more control over your energy supply.

  • Lower your carbon footprint

    Every unit of solar electricity reduces reliance on fossil-fuelled generation — a direct contribution to Surrey’s and your community’s green goals.

  • Increase your home’s appeal

    Eco-conscious buyers increasingly value homes with sustainable energy features. A solar installation can make your property more attractive.

  • Low maintenance, long-term benefit

    Once installed by professionals, solar PV systems require minimal upkeep and can deliver decades of reliable service, giving long-lasting value.

Choosing TLGEC for Your Solar Project

Selecting an ideal solar system for your Oxted home depends on several local-specific factors: roof orientation (south-facing is best, but east or west can work), shading (from trees, neighbouring roofs or conservations), property age and roof type (e.g. slate, tile), and your typical energy usage pattern.

 

If you use a lot of electricity in the evening — for heating, EV charging or appliances — pairing solar with a battery adds strong value.

 

We’ll guide you through roof surveys, panel and inverter selection, battery sizing and system layout to ensure optimal performance and aesthetic fit for your home.

Solar Panel (PV) FAQs

To ensure you have all the information you require at your fingertips, we have compiled a list of frequently asked questions. If you still have a question then feel free to reach out and get in touch. Our team is extremely knowledgeable and here to help.

Will solar panels still generate electricity on cloudy days in Oxted?

Yes. Modern solar panels can produce electricity from diffuse daylight — not just direct sun — so even on overcast days they can contribute meaningful power.

Do I need a south-facing roof to make solar worthwhile?

A south-facing roof does give the best yield, but east or west orientations can still work well. We’ll assess your roof orientation and shading in a free survey to recommend the best setup for your home.

Will I need planning permission for solar panels in Oxted?

Most domestic solar installations are classed as “permitted development,” so planning permission isn’t usually required — unless your property is listed, in a conservation area or has unusual roof features.

What if I want to use solar power at night or in winter?

Pairing solar with battery storage lets you store daylight generation for use after sunset. On particularly dark days you’d rely on the grid — but solar still offsets some of your annual electricity use.

How much maintenance does a solar system need?

Very little. A regular visual check and occasional cleaning is usually enough. With quality installation and good components, systems can run efficiently for decades.

Will installing solar increase my property’s value?

Many home-buyers value properties with lower energy bills and eco-friendly credentials. A professionally installed solar system can enhance appeal and often adds market value.
