*1 Evidence Supporting the Impact of Solar Panels on Property Value

A study conducted by Swansea University, which analysed approximately five million property listings between 2012 and 2018, found that homes equipped with solar panels experienced an average increase in property value ranging from 6.1% to 7.1%. (GreenMatch, Sunsave Energy)

Further research highlights the financial benefits of improving a property's Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating. For instance, upgrading from a D to a C rating can lead to an approximate 3% increase in property value, equating to an average rise of £9,003. One effective method of achieving this EPC improvement is through the installation of solar panels. (Sunsave Energy, The Times, Project Solar UK)

Supporting these findings, a 2023 study by Rightmove revealed that properties with solar panels sold for an average of 25% more than comparable homes without them. Additionally, the study noted that 76% of prospective buyers are more likely to purchase a property that incorporates energy-saving measures, such as solar panels. (Homebuilding.co.uk, Sunsave Energy)

In conclusion, multiple reputable sources confirm that installing solar panels can significantly enhance property value. This is primarily achieved through improvements in energy efficiency and EPC ratings, making solar panel installation a worthwhile investment for homeowners.​sunsave.energy+2sunsave.energy+2projectsolaruk.com+2
