The cost of doing nothing
With energy bills constantly rising, you can see how your bills will be affected within the next ten years if you do nothing. At NRG Solar, we aim to stop this from happening and keeping your bills low.
How much could you save with solar panels?
Your potential solar savings depend on several factors, including:
-
- Your current electricity usage
- The size of your solar panel system
- The number of solar panels installed
- Your battery storage capacity
- Your inverter size and efficiency
- The quality and brand of your solar equipment
- Your electricity tariff
- How much solar energy you use yourself versus export back to the grid
- Your home’s roof size, orientation and shading
Because every home is different, no two solar installations will produce exactly the same results.
Our calculator provides an estimate based on typical system performance. Your final savings will be calculated after a full assessment of your home and energy requirements.
Why install solar panels?
Solar panels can help homeowners take control of their energy costs by generating their own renewable electricity.
The main benefits of installing solar include:
Reduce your electricity bills
By generating your own electricity, you can reduce the amount of energy you need to buy from your supplier.
The more solar energy you use within your home, the less you rely on rising energy prices.
Increase your energy independence
Adding battery storage allows you to store excess solar energy and use it when you need it most.
Instead of sending unused energy back to the grid during the day, your battery can help power your home during evenings and periods of higher demand.
Make a positive environmental impact
Solar energy is a cleaner alternative to traditional fossil fuel-generated electricity.
By installing solar panels, you can reduce your household carbon footprint while generating renewable energy directly from your own home.
Why solar savings estimates vary between homes
A solar system is designed around your individual property, lifestyle and energy usage.
For example:
A home with a larger battery may be able to store more energy for use overnight.
A home with more roof space may be able to install more panels and generate more electricity.
A home with shading issues may produce less energy compared with a property with an unobstructed south-facing roof.
The type of inverter, panel technology and overall system design will also influence long-term performance.
This is why an online calculator can provide a useful estimate, but a personalised solar design will always provide the most accurate forecast.

Solar Savings Calculator FAQs
How accurate is the solar savings calculator?
The calculator provides an estimate based on the information entered and typical solar system performance. Actual savings will vary depending on your final system design, energy usage, equipment chosen and electricity tariffs.
How much can solar panels save on electricity bills?
Solar savings vary from home to home. Factors such as your electricity usage, number of solar panels, battery size and how much energy you use during the day will all affect your potential savings.
Does adding a battery increase solar savings?
A battery can increase your ability to use your own solar energy by storing excess electricity for later use. This can reduce the amount of electricity you need to buy from the grid.
Do solar panels still save money if energy prices change?
Solar can help protect homeowners against future energy price increases by reducing reliance on electricity purchased from suppliers. However, future savings depend on energy prices, system performance and your household usage.
Do I need a battery with solar panels?
Not every home requires a battery. The best solution depends on your energy habits, electricity usage and long-term goals. A solar assessment can help determine whether battery storage is right for you.
