What happens to the excess energy your solar panels produce? ☀️⚡

Your solar panels often generate more electricity than your home needs, especially on bright summer days. But that extra energy doesn't go to waste.

Here's what happens:

✅ Your home uses the solar power it needs first.
✅ Any surplus electricity is exported back to the National Grid.
✅ If you're signed up to the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), you can receive payments for the electricity you export.

Adding a battery storage system can also allow you to store excess energy to use later, helping you maximise your savings and reduce your reliance on the grid.

Going away this summer?

While you're relaxing on holiday, your solar PV system will continue generating electricity.

If your home uses less electricity while you're away, any surplus energy can be exported straight to the grid, helping you make the most of your system even when you're not there.

It's one of the many benefits of generating your own renewable energy - your roof keeps working, even while you're enjoying a well-earned break.

Top 3 mistakes people make when choosing solar installers

Choosing the right solar installer is just as important as choosing the right solar panels.

Here are three common mistakes homeowners make:

Choosing based on price alone – the cheapest quote isn't always the best value in the long run!

Not checking accreditations and experience – make sure your installer has the right qualifications and a proven track record.

Overlooking aftercare and support – a good installer will be there long after the installation is complete.

At Watt & Connolly, we take pride in delivering high-quality solar PV installations backed by expert advice and exceptional customer service.

Is solar still worth it in 2026?

Yes, and for most homeowners, more than ever!

With rising energy prices and improved panel efficiency, solar PV continues to be one of the most effective ways to reduce long-term energy costs.

Modern systems are more efficient, more affordable, and better integrated with battery storage than ever before -meaning you can generate, store, and use more of your own electricity at home.

For many households across Essex and East Anglia, solar isn’t just about cutting bills anymore, it’s about gaining long-term energy control and protection from future price increases.

If you’re wondering whether your home is suitable, the best place to start is a simple roof assessment and savings estimate.

Solar in 2026? Still worth it, for the right home, it makes more sense than ever.
