FAQ
Q: What is the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG)?
A: A UK scheme where licensed electricity suppliers pay you for surplus electricity you export to the grid from your solar system. Rates vary widely.
Q: Do I need a battery or EV charger to benefit?
A: Not always — you can still export from a solar-only system. But a battery or smart charger gives you flexibility to export during the highest-rate windows and import when grid electricity is cheapest.
Q: How much could I realistically save?
A: Depending on your system size, installation, and tariff, homeowners in our region are seeing £800 to £1,100+ per year in combined savings/income.
Q: Are the savings guaranteed?
A: No — they depend on system size, export/import behaviour, roof orientation/shade, and which tariff you’re on. But our assessments are conservative and realistic.
