Benefits of Installing Solar Panels

Switching to solar brings many advantages for Walton-on-Thames homeowners. Below are some of the key benefits you’ll find from partnering with the TLGEC team.

  • Lower Energy Bills

    Installing solar panels lets you generate your own electricity during the day, reducing the amount you need to buy from your supplier. With rising bills in recent years, generating your own power in Walton-on-Thames is a smart move to regain control of your energy costs.

  • Increased Home Value

    Homes equipped with solar PV and battery storage are increasingly sought-after, especially in commuter towns like Walton-on-Thames where buyers appreciate both eco credentials and lower lifetime running costs. That added appeal can help when resale time comes.

  • Support Local Green Goals

    Elmbridge Borough Council has committed to making the organisation carbon-neutral by 2030 and the borough by 2050, with initiatives across energy, travel and housing. Installing solar panels on your home helps you join that local effort to reduce carbon emissions.

  • Excellent Sunlight Counters

    Although Walton is inland, the broader Surrey area benefits from relatively high annual sunshine — at weather station Kenley the average comes in around 1,670 hours per year. That means good yield potential even on roofs without perfect orientation.

  • Future-Proof Your Home

    Adding solar panels now means you’re ready for future upgrades — battery storage, EV charging or smart home energy management. With local infrastructure improving (including EV chargers in Walton-on-Thames), you’ll be ahead of the curve.

  • Trusted Installation & Aftercare

    With TLGEC, your system is installed to industry-leading standards. We’re MCS-certified, work with top brands like SolarEdge, SunPower, Myenergi and Tesla, and include monitoring, maintenance guidance and support. That means your investment is protected and reliable for years.

Choosing Your Solar Installer

Choosing the right company matters, and at TLGEC we make that decision easy. Start by looking for WHICH? Trusted Trader accreditation — we’ve proudly held ours for over ten years. Always check for MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) and NICEIC installer credentials to ensure your system meets the highest standards.

Ask about brand-level certifications too — we’re a Tesla Premium Certified Installer, partnering only with trusted manufacturers. It’s also wise to request references and read reviews; we have over 300 five-star reviews from happy customers across the South-East.

Make sure your installer provides a full service including design, installation, commissioning, monitoring, and ongoing aftercare. Your quote should clearly cover all work, warranties and required paperwork for building regulations or local authority approval.

Finally, choose a team that truly knows your area — we understand Walton-on-Thames homes, from roof types and orientations to planning requirements. With TLGEC, you’ll get a transparent quote, no hidden extras, and a team who put trust, expertise, and quality first.

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.

Are solar panels worth it in Walton-on-Thames?

Yes. With good sunshine levels for the South-East and rising energy costs, adding solar panels on homes in Walton-on-Thames makes strong sense for reducing bills and supporting local net-zero targets.

Do I need planning permission for solar panels?

In most cases no, solar panels are permitted under standard permitted development rights. But for listed buildings, conservation areas (parts of Walton) or roofs facing the river, we’ll check local rules and advise accordingly.

Can I pair solar panels with battery storage and EV charging?

Absolutely. We install solar panels with optional compatible battery systems and EV chargers. In Walton-on-Thames, with growing EV uptake and local council charger roll-out, that’s a future-proof upgrade.

How does roof orientation affect performance?

South-facing roofs give the best output, but many homes in Walton-on-Thames with east- or west-facing roofs still benefit significantly. Our team assesses your roof pitch, shading, orientation and usage to design the optimal system.

What kind of maintenance do solar panels need?

Very little. Occasional cleaning (especially if near trees), annual checks, and monitoring via our platform are usually enough. We include guidance and support with every installation.

How long before my solar system pays for itself?

It depends on your energy usage, system size and export savings—but thanks to decent sunlight levels in Surrey and rising electricity costs, many homeowners see strong financial returns within 8-12 years.

Can I still get support or export payments?

While the older feed-in tariff scheme has closed to new applicants, you may still benefit from increased self-consumption, reduced grid electricity usage and any available local incentives. Our team explains current rules in your quote.
