How Much Does Solar Installation in Brighton Cost?
Your homes’ energy needs won’t be the same as another persons, so the price of a solar system will vary depending on your needs. A quote from a reputable solar energy company should always consider the size of your roof, the amount of energy you use a day and of course, your budget.
In general, a full installation starts from £4,500 and can go up to £12,000. This depends on the size of the system and products. The amount of roof space available is crucial in determining the cost and potential savings of solar panel installation, as larger properties can accommodate more panels, leading to greater energy and cost savings.
At CRG Direct, we provide entirely bespoke PV packages to all our clients. Before providing a quote, we’ll take a look at your roof either in person or using remote tools and discuss your needs with you in detail, ensuring that we fully understand your energy needs and any special requirements so our teams can provide excellent results every time. By providing bespoke solar quotes, we can promise our clients that there will be no hidden extras, so they’ll never pay more than the agreed upfront service cost.

Solar PV Brighton - The Process:
Initial Consultation
Schedule a consultation with a solar PV installation company. This is the first step in the installation process. During this consultation, a solar expert will evaluate your home's energy needs and assess your property's solar potential.
At CRG Direct, we'll talk to you about:
The orientation of your roof
The amount of shade
The age and condition of your roof.
Design and System Packages
After the site assessment, you'll receive a solar system design that meets your energy needs and fits within your budget. There are many different types of panels available. Selecting the type that best meets your home's energy needs is important.
Most panels have a 25-year warranty, meaning you can save for years to come.
Battery Storage
You can add battery storage to your system or even install a battery on its own to store energy at off peak prices. You can always add a solar system later on down the line to a battery or vice versa.
Planning Permission for Solar
You won't need planning permission from Brighton City Council. All you'll need to do is schedule a day with your solar provider to come an install your system.
The process typically takes a day or two, depending on the size of the system. At CRG, we aim to get your system installed in around four weeks after you sign up with us.
Solar Thermal
You may to choose to add a solar hot water heater to your PV panels. This add-on allows you to heat water using the energy your panels collect.
Connection to the Grid
After the installation is complete, the solar panel system needs to be connected to the grid. An inverter needs to be installed. It converts the direct current (DC) produced by the solar panels into alternating current (AC). This AC is compatible with your home's electrical system.
Getting paid for your exports
CRG Direct are MCS accredited solar installers in Brighton. You can save even more money by using your MCS certificate to access the SEG scheme. The Smart Export Guarantee SEG scheme allows you to get paid for your solar energy exports.
Maintenance
Panels are fairly low maintenance. However, a once-in-a-while inspection will help ensure your solar panel system is operating at its peak efficiency and can help you maximize the amount of energy you produce.
