Estimates, not advice

Everything on this site is general information and modelled estimation. It is not financial advice, tax advice, legal advice or an engineering assessment, and it is not a quote. We are not financial advisers, tax agents or accredited installers. Before committing money, get a site survey from an accredited installer and, where tax is involved, advice from a qualified professional in your jurisdiction.

What the calculators can and cannot know

Our figures are computed from a regional electricity rate and the system parameters you enter. They cannot account for factors that materially change a real installation’s economics, including:

  • roof pitch, orientation, structural condition and available unshaded area;
  • shading from trees, chimneys and neighbouring buildings across the year;
  • your actual consumption pattern and how much generation you use rather than export;
  • the specific tariff, standing charge and export rate your supplier offers you;
  • local grid connection limits, permitting requirements and installer pricing.

Two identical houses on the same street can have materially different outcomes. Treat our output as a starting range to sanity-check quotes against, not as a prediction.

Incentives change

Grant schemes, tax credits, export tariffs and VAT treatment are set by governments and regulators and can change, close, or be capped by available funding — sometimes at short notice. We name the administering body on each page precisely so you can confirm current terms and eligibility with them before you rely on a scheme. Eligibility is decided by that body, never by this site.

Accuracy and liability

We take care with the data and correct confirmed errors promptly (see our editorial policy), but we do not warrant that the information is complete, current or error-free. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we accept no liability for any loss arising from decisions made in reliance on this site. Your use of the site is governed by our terms of service.

External links and advertising

We link to third-party bodies so you can verify scheme details at source. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content. Advertising shown on this site is served by third parties and is not an endorsement — see our cookie policy.
