How much do solar panels cost in the UK?

Generally, solar panels aren't sold as single units - you'll need at least 6 panels to see any benefit. A 6-panel package from E.ON starts at £4,995.1

You could have solar panels on your roof for just £138.75 per month with our 3 years interest-free credit option.2

Installation is included in the package and you'll receive a full in-home assessment before your solar panels are installed to ensure you get the right package for your home.
