Solar PV installers in Carnoustie

The size of solar PV system you should install depends on a number of factors, including your energy consumption, available roof space, and budget. REPSY are your local, trusted, Solar PV installers based in Carnoustie.

Here are a few things to consider:

  • Energy consumption: The first step is to look at your energy consumption and determine how much electricity you use on average. This will give you an idea of the size of the system you need to install to offset your energy usage. For example, a typical 3kWp solar PV system can generate around 2,500 kWh of electricity per year, which is enough to power a small household.
  • Available roof space: The amount of roof space you have available for solar panels will also determine the size of the system you can install. A 3kWp system typically requires around 21 square meters of roof space, while a 4kWp system requires around 28 square meters.
  • Budget: Of course, your budget will also play a role in determining the size of the system you can install. Generally, larger systems will cost more upfront but can provide greater long-term savings on your electricity bills.

Ultimately, the size of the solar PV system you install will depend on your specific needs and circumstances. It's a good idea to consult with a professional solar installer who can assess your energy usage, available roof space, and budget to help you determine the right size system for your home.
