Why Install Solar Panels?
1. Savings on Electricity Bills
2. Eco-Friendly Living
3. Protection From Energy Costs
4. Built To Last
Tired of watching those energy bills climb higher? Here in Leith, with our fluctuating energy prices, solar technology offers a way to stabilise and lower your costs over time. Leith customers typically see an immediate drop in their reliance on grid electricity, creating both instant savings and long-term financial benefits.
By installing solar panels on your Leith property, you're doing your bit to cut greenhouse gas emissions and improve Edinburgh's air quality. You're supporting local energy production while helping achieve Scotland's ambitious 2045 net-zero target.
Fed up with unpredictable energy bills? Solar panels provide a reliable shield against rising costs driven by market forces and regulatory changes. The Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) scheme even lets you earn by exporting surplus energy back to the grid.
Modern solar panels are robust and long-lasting. With warranties up to 25 years and minimal maintenance requirements, they're a sound investment even in Leith's challenging coastal weather conditions. Once installed, they quietly generate savings year after year.
5. Increased Property Value
Installing solar panels can significantly boost your Leith property's market value. Market research confirms that properties with renewable energy installations often command premium prices, making solar a valuable home improvement with potential resale benefits.
6. Cash Back From Government
The UK government actively promotes renewable energy. The SEG scheme pays you for excess solar energy exported to the national grid, while the zero-rate VAT on installations removes the usual 20% tax, making now an ideal time for Leith residents to invest.
7. Energy Security
Generate your own electricity with solar panels and reduce dependence on external suppliers. For Leith residents facing high energy demands, solar offers not just security but also battery storage options, ensuring continuous power even during our darker winter months.
8. Support Scotland
Every solar panel installed in Leith contributes to Scotland's renewable energy goals. Your choice directly helps power our nation with clean, sustainable energy, essential for reaching Scotland's 2045 net-zero target and reducing fossil fuel reliance.

Solar Panels Savings
For a typical three-bedroom house in Edinburgh, a 3.5 kW solar panel system without battery storage is a popular choice.
Under standard test conditions, such a system would produce about 3,500 kWh of energy annually. However, given Edinburgh's northern latitude and weather patterns, real-world production is around 80% of this figure at approximately 2,800 kWh per year.
£379
Most households without battery storage typically use about half of the energy they generate, around 1,400 kWh, directly in the home. As per Ofgem, with the average UK electricity rate at 27.03 pence per kWh, this direct usage translates to savings of approximately £379 annually.
+
£140
The remaining 1,400 kWh is exported to the national grid through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) scheme. At the average SEG tariff of 10 pence per kWh, you can earn an additional £140 each year from your exports.
=
£519
Combining bill savings and export income, a typical Edinburgh home with a 3.5 kw solar system saves around £519 annually. Please note that your savings will vary depending on your specific electricity rates, the SEG tariff you secure, and the particular sunshine levels at your location.
For a personalised estimate, please contact us at Solar Panels Edinburgh. All figures provided are accurate as of April 2025.
Solar Panel Installation Process
Roof Access & Preparation:
Our team begins with a comprehensive survey to assess your Leith property's roof condition and tile arrangements. This is followed by installing property-specific scaffolding, from minimal setups for bungalows in Leith Links to more extensive systems for tenements along Great Junction Street. This ensures safety, identifies any issues requiring attention before work begins, and often contributes to installation cost savings.
Mounting Structure Installation:
Next, our solar panel installers carefully remove selected roof tiles to access and secure hooks directly into your rafters. We then replace tiles with added waterproof flashing, ensuring complete weatherproofing. Once secure, we attach and fasten mounting rails to these hooks using high-quality screws, creating a robust frame designed to support your panels through Leith's challenging coastal weather conditions for decades to come.
Panel Installation:
The photovoltaic (PV) panels are then carefully positioned onto the frame using clamps. Our technicians ensure that each panel is precisely aligned for optimal sun exposure, which is critical for maximising efficiency in Leith's variable weather and northern latitude.
Electrical Integration:
After mounting, we connect the panels' DC output to an inverter (routing cables neatly under tiles or through carefully sealed and flashed openings), then link the inverter's AC output to your property's electrical supply. We install all safety components, AC/DC isolators and an Ofgem-approved generation meter for safe operation and performance monitoring. Finally, we coordinate with the local District Network Operator to secure proper grid connection, ensuring your system meets all regulatory requirements for feeding excess energy back to the network.
Commissioning & Certification:
The installation is concluded with electrical safety and performance testing to ensure everything works as it should. You'll receive documentation including user manuals, warranty details, and maintenance guidance for long-term care. We then register your system with the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS), a mark of quality compliance with UK standards.

Solar Panel FAQs
How Much Do Solar Panels Cost In Leith?
The cost of a solar installation in Leith depends on several factors, including system size, placement, installation requirements, product quality, and labour.
When you first get in touch with us at Solar Panels Edinburgh, we discuss these variables and provide an indicative estimate for your consideration. If you're happy with the initial estimate, our team will conduct a detailed site survey that considers roof or land space, sunlight access, and any unique needs of your Leith property.
Our final proposal clearly outlines all costs and expected energy savings, making the decision-making process straightforward for both residential and commercial properties in Leith.
For context, typical domestic system costs are:
- 2 kW – £2,500 to £3,500
- 4 kW – £5,000 to £6,000
- 6 kW – £9,500 to £10,500
Typical commercial systems range from:
- 10 kW – £13,000 to £15,000
- 50 kW – £33,000 to £60,000
- 100 kW – £60,000 to £120,000
How Long Will My Solar Panels Last In Leith?
Solar panel systems are built to last, given their lack of moving parts. Typically, you can expect your panels to last at least 25 years, with most warranties covering this period.
For Leith properties, we select solar panels that can withstand the coastal conditions, including salt air and stronger winds, ensuring longevity despite these environmental factors.
The inverter, an essential component of your solar installation, generally has a shorter lifespan of over 10 years. With proper maintenance, your system should continue to generate energy efficiently throughout its intended lifespan, even in Leith's variable coastal climate.
How Long Does It Take To Install Solar Panels?
For domestic properties in Leith, the installation process is generally quick and unobtrusive, often completed within a day or two. This includes mounting the panels on your roof, installing the inverter, and connecting your solar PV system to your home's electrical network.
For commercial installations in Leith's business district or port area, the timescales can vary significantly based on the complexity and size of the project, ranging from a week to several weeks.
