Frequently Asked Questions
How much electricity does a 6kW solar system produce?
A 6kW solar panel system in the UK typically generates between 5,100 to 6,000 kWh of electricity per year, depending on your location and roof orientation. This is enough to cover most or all of the electricity needs of a typical 3-4 bedroom family home.
How many solar panels are in a 6kW system?
A 6kW solar system typically consists of 14-15 solar panels, depending on the wattage of individual panels. With modern 400W panels, you would need approximately 15 panels to achieve 6kW capacity.
Is a 6kW solar system worth it in the UK?
Yes, a 6kW solar system is an excellent investment for medium to large UK homes. With current electricity prices, you can save £900-1,200 annually on energy bills, with the system typically paying for itself within 6-8 years while providing 25+ years of free electricity.
How much roof space do I need for a 6kW solar system?
A 6kW solar panel system requires approximately 28-35 square metres of roof space. This is roughly equivalent to the size of a large double garage roof, making it suitable for most UK family homes with good south, east, or west-facing roof areas.
Can I add battery storage to a 6kW system?
Absolutely! A 6kW system is ideal for pairing with battery storage. We recommend a 5-10kWh battery to store excess daytime generation for evening use, maximising your self-consumption and reducing grid reliance to near zero.
