* British Gas solar panels figures
Savings will vary according to levels of energy usage, figures quoted are for illustrative purposes only. The following figures are calculated using their 2.3 kWp solar PV system.
Average annual saving on your electricity bill
Generating your own electricity means you don’t have to buy it from your supplier – you’d normally pay us 14.2p per kWh if we supplied your electricity1. The average customer will generate 1,955 kWh of electricity per year so if you generated 50% of your own electricity each year you’d save:
£138.80 (977.5 kWh x 14.2p)
Average annual earnings from the Feed-in Tariff
Current Government rates pay 43.3p for every kWh you generate and use. The average customer could generate 1,955 kWh of electricity per year, meaning a total income from electricity generated of:
£846.51 (1,955 kWh x 43.3p)
Average annual earnings from the National Grid
You’ll also get an extra 3.1p for every kWh you generate but don’t use which is fed into the National Grid. So for example, if you use 50% of the 1,955 kWh you generate, you can sell 50% (977.5 kWh) to the National Grid for an additional income of:
£30.30 (977.5 kWh x 3.1p)
Total annual earnings and savings:
£1015.61 (£138.80 + £846.51 + £30.30)
25 year earnings and savings:
25 x £1015.61 = £25,390.25
