Solar Panels in Somerset
A professionally designed solar PV system can reduce your reliance on the grid, protect against rising electricity costs and provide decades of clean energy for your home or business.
Turn Unused Roof Space Into A Long-Term Energy Asset
Most properties already have the space needed to produce clean electricity every day. Solar PV helps you use that space properly, reducing your reliance on energy suppliers and giving your home or business more control over future energy costs.
Generate Your Own Electricity
Produce clean electricity directly from your property.
Reduce Supplier Dependence
Use more of your own energy and rely less on the grid.
Lower Long-Term Costs
Protect your property from unpredictable electricity prices.
Plan For The Future
Pair solar with battery storage, EV charging, air conditioning or heat pumps.
More Than
Most people first look at solar because they want to reduce electricity costs. What many discover is that the benefits go much further. A well-designed system gives your property more independence, more flexibility and a stronger foundation for future energy use.
- Generate Your Own Energy
Turn unused roof space into electricity your property can use every day.
- Reduce Reliance On Suppliers
Produce power where you use it, instead of buying everything from the grid.
- Protect Against Future Price Rises
The more electricity you generate yourself, the less exposed you become to rising costs.
- Pair With Battery Storage
Store excess daytime generation and use more of your own energy in the evening.
- Support A More Electric Lifestyle
Solar works naturally alongside EV chargers, battery storage, air conditioning and heat pumps.

Yes, even
in winter
One of the most common misconceptions is that solar panels only work in hot countries. Solar panels generate electricity from daylight, not heat.
Orientation is not as limiting as many people think. East, west and south-facing roofs can all be effective, and even some north-facing roofs may be worth assessing depending on the property.
What matters most is accurate design, good specification and a clear understanding of how your property uses electricity. While generation is higher during spring and summer, modern solar systems continue producing energy throughout the year.
If solar works at utility scale across Britain, it can work on the right roof too.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do solar panels work in winter?
Yes. Solar panels generate electricity from daylight rather than heat and continue producing energy throughout the year.
How much roof space do I need?
Most residential systems require between 10 and 25 panels, depending on your goals, roof layout and available space.
How long do solar panels last?
Modern solar panels are typically expected to continue producing electricity for 25 to 40 years or more.
Can I add battery storage later?
Yes. Many homeowners install solar first and add battery storage later, provided the system has been designed with future upgrades in mind.
How much maintenance do solar panels require?
Very little. Most systems require minimal maintenance beyond occasional inspections and performance monitoring.
Is planning permission required?
Most residential solar installations fall under permitted development, although some exceptions can apply.
Can solar work with EV charging?
Yes. Solar can help support EV charging, especially when paired with smart charging and battery storage.
Can solar work with heat pumps or air conditioning?
Yes. Solar can help support a more electric home by offsetting some of the additional electricity demand.

We needed our existing array of solar panels removed and reinstalled during a roof tile replacement. They were efficient, came when they said they would come, and were very efficient.

The installation crew was prompt, respectful, and clearly knew what they were doing. They kept the worksite clean and walked me through every step. Now that the system is up and running, I’m completely self-sufficient — and it feels amazing!

Thanks to JellyWatt Renewables for the installation on our double garage last October. It was a quick and easy process and we're delighted with what we've generated over the winter. Now the brighter weather is here, things are looking even better.

We have just had our EV charger put in by JellyWatt Renewables and not only did they up it up efficiently, Linden made sure to add our phones to link the device. It is working perfectly and only using solar or the cheapest electricity rate. They made sure to fit it carefully to a difficult uneven wall too! Thank you so much - I highly recommend them!
