Looking to calculate the potential fuel bill savings you could make over the life time of your solar installation? The energy saving trust provide a calculator using the following link:

Solar Energy Calculator

This tool provides estimates for fuel bill saving and financial payments you may receive by installing a solar photovoltaic (i.e. solar PV) system. These figures are based on information you provide, using a number of assumptions to indicate potential benefits. This is to help you decide whether a solar PV system is suitable for you.

Use of the tool and its outputs is not a guarantee that you will see the exact same fuel bill savings and financial payments from the installation of your planned system.

This tool estimates potential payments from the Smart Export Guarantee , which was introduced on 1st January 2020 and requires energy suppliers to pay customers for the electricity they export to the grid. There are a range of tariffs available for this and in some cases participation requires metering. Deals may also be time limited or have other conditions which you should consider carefully in order to make the best choice for you.

The Solar Trade Association website lists current deals available.
