Simplifying Solar Panels:
Unveiling How They Work, Their Types, and Benefits
How Solar Panels Work
Solar panels work by converting sunlight into electricity through photovoltaic cells. When sunlight hits the solar panels, the cells generate a direct current (DC), which is then converted into alternating current (AC) by an inverter. The electricity can then be used to power homes, businesses, or stored in batteries for later use.
- Solar panels generate electricity from UV lighting even in all weather conditions.
- The Inverter changes the current from DC to AC, so that it can be used in your home.
- Any surplus energy that is not used will be stored in your home battery storage for later use.
- The Consumer Unit Board controls the distribution of solar energy.
- This green energy is then used to power your home or recharge your electric vehicle when needed.
- Your Generation Meter will calculate how much energy you have produced.
Different Types of Solar Panels

Custom Reviews &Success Story
Happy Customers
Came recommended so I gave them a call. From start to finish the service was top drawer. Rahi was very easy to speak to and to the point. No hard sell. After the initial quote there was no haranguing, but once I gave the green light it was warp drive. Done and dusted within a week according to my availability. Scaffolders we’re super quick, and Darren and Taylor the installers installed 16 panels and the 9.5kw battery in a day. The price was good too as well as the communication from the back office staff with regular calls and emails on progress. The solar market is full of get rich quick cowboys but try the Indians and you won’t be disappointed 😉 Highly recommend. Thank you Solar4Good!!
Highly recommend solar panels, the company, and Rahi! We recently had our panels and battery installed. Rahi provided us with excellent customer service and planning. Always available on the phone, always very helpful and no problem is too big. Very happy to find solutions and puts you at ease. Installation team were excellent. Highly skilled, and completed an excellent job. Very happy with it all. Very competitively priced!
Perfection, again!! Once again SOLAR4GOOD have delivered an outstanding service. Thank you RAHI. I spoke to Rahi just a week ago and he was able to arrange our installation with the minimum of delay. Today we had our second 9.5kW battery installed, by Darren. His knowledge of the system is outstanding, and he made certain our system was up and running smoothly before he left. We have now had two installations by Rahi and SOLAR4GOOD and would definitely recommend them to everyone. Thank you so much.
Our experience with Solar4Good has been excellent. The entire process from quote through to survey and installation took only a month. Any queries were answered immediately. The team that fitted the panels were fantastic and left all work areas spotlessly clean. I received phone calls at various points in the process to check I was happy with the work which indeed I was. We had a meter connection issue shortly after installation which was dealt with immediately - engineers attended the next day to identify and sort the problem. A great company with excellent customer service.
Solar4Good have been brilliant throughout the process. They were responsive to my request for a quote, and the survey was undertaken very promptly. They were then able to diarise the panels' fitting within a couple of weeks. The scaffolding was erected in time for the day and then the fitters arrived at 07:30 and were complete by mid-morning! It's been no more than six weeks since my first enquiry! I'd recommend Solar4Good to anyone (and have already passed on their details to friends).
It was not easy sifting through the plethora of information provided. We chose Solar4good based on the positive reviews on Trustpilot. They also happened to be the most competitive. Andy and Scott came on the appointed day and completed the installation without a hitch. I was given a quick tutorial on how to use the app. Further advice was given on maximizing energy usage. We are very pleased with our installation and have recommended Solar4good to our friends who were interested in installing solar panels.
Solar4good, you won't regret it! This was number 1 company out of 4 that we asked for quotes. Solar4good were recommended by a friend which is always preferable.The quote was competitive, and the service was excellent. The communication of this company from Rahi and all his team, was reflexive and very efficient. The technical info was understandable, the survey, scaffolders and installation all ran smoothly. The timeline was well defined and we were informed of any changes of which there was only one, in good time. The panels were fitted by a pleasant, knowledgeable team and now we are up and running. All brilliant!!
I'm so happy with my new solar installation! The team was professional, efficient, and made the whole process very easy. Not only am I excited about the environmental benefits, but I'm also looking forward to the cost savings on my energy bill. I would highly recommend this company to anyone considering solar. Rahi and Riti was always on hand to respond to any queries and ensure our project requirements were met!
My expectations have been exceeded every step of the way with Solar4Good. My initial enquiry was responded to by Manan very promptly, he was very knowledgable and advised me very well - not over selling or over promising. The survey was booked in very quickly, followed by install, all within around a month of enquiring - a very happy solar & battery customer. Definitely recommend!
Excellent service! I have been searching about solar panels for couple of weeks and i saw their advert. Sales guy called me next day and explained me in depth types of systems, advantages of battery etc. finally decided to go ahead with Solar4good. On the day of installation they were running a bit late due to traffic so they kept me well informed. Then installer explained me how everything works - helped to set up app on my phone so i can monitor all on my phone. Overall all done promptly and swiftly.
I wanted a 5kw inverter to meet my consumption needs. Rahi at Solar4Good listened to my requirements and quoted for a 5kw inverter + batteries (other companies would only quote for 3.6kw inverters). The installation team, Ellis and Kane, arrived promptly on installation day and were very polite and answered all my questions. The only issue was a missing CT clamp but they returned a couple of days later and finished the installation and commissioning. All in all I am very pleased with the quality of the service from Solar4Good and would happily recommend them.
I cannot praise this company high enough. The service I received from Manan Shah back in October last year from the initial quote to installation was excellent. The installation was equally as good. However, all too often a company's service stops once initial works are complete and paid for. Not in the case of Solar4Good. I have had reason to contact them on two or three occasions since installation for advice and help with my system, most recently today. Their response on every occasion has been excellent. Especially the service I have received from Edward McKay - first class in every way!

Frequently Asked Questions
Solar panel installation refers to the process of placing solar panels on a residential or commercial property to harness sunlight and convert it into electricity. It involves mounting the panels on rooftops, carports, or ground-mounted structures.
Solar panels contain photovoltaic (PV) cells that convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity. The panels made of multiple PV cells, which generate an electric current when exposed to sunlight. An inverter then converts the DC electricity into alternating current (AC), which is used to power electrical devices in your home or business.
Most homes are suitable for solar panel installation, provided they have access to sunlight. Ideally, your roof or property should have a south-facing orientation with minimal shading. However, solar panels can still be installed on east- or west-facing roofs, although they may produce slightly less electricity.
Explore various ways Solar panel installers can integrate solar panels into your property:
1. Flat Roof Installations:
- Lay panels in tubs or on frames for flat roofs.
- Achieve correct elevations to maximize sunlight exposure.
2. Pitched Roof Installations:
- Ideal for pitched roofs, depending on their orientation.
- Standard metal fixing frames hold panels directly on existing roof tiles.
3. In-Roof Solar:
- Save on material and labor costs during new roof fittings.
- Replace a section of tiles lying flush with the roof’s surface.
- Perfect for new build and renovation projects.
4. Solar Slate Tiles:
- Suitable for listed properties.
- Mimic the appearance of standard slate tiles while generating solar power.
5. Façade Installations:
- Integrate panels into the building’s exterior.
For Large-Scale Commercial Installations:
1. Ground-Level Installations:
- Consider commercial properties with limited or unsuitable roof space.
- Assess feasibility for domestic properties based on sunlight availability.
2. Ground Mount Tubs:
- Offer a low-profile ground-mounted solution.
- Work well with smaller domestic installations.
3. Frame-Supported Ground-Mounted Systems:
- Provide optimal elevation, especially in agricultural settings.
- Increase ground clearance for additional use, benefiting livestock.
Discover the versatility of solar panel installations with solar panel installers, ensuring a tailored solution for your property’s layout and requirements.
The cost of solar panels can vary depending on factors such as the size of the system, the type of panels used, and the complexity of the installation. Generally, the cost includes the price of the panels, inverters, mounting equipment, installation labor, and any necessary permits. It’s best to obtain quotes from multiple solar installers to get an accurate estimate for your specific situation.
Solar panels are designed to be durable and long-lasting. Most panels come with a warranty that guarantees their performance for 20 to 25 years. However, solar panels can continue to produce electricity well beyond their warranty period, with many lasting 30 years or more.
Solar panels can still generate electricity on cloudy or rainy days, although their output will be reduced compared to sunny days. While direct sunlight is ideal, solar panels can still produce significant power in diffused or indirect sunlight. Additionally, excess electricity generated during sunny days can be stored in batteries or fed back into the grid for later use.
While it’s technically possible to install solar panels yourself, it is generally recommended to hire a professional solar installer. Solar panel installation involves electrical work, knowledge of building codes and permits, and proper system design to maximize efficiency. A professional UK solar panel installer will ensure the panels are safely and correctly installed, comply with regulations, and may also assist with paperwork and permits.
Yes, solar panels can significantly reduce your electricity bills. By generating your own electricity, you rely less on the grid for power, resulting in lower monthly bills. The exact savings will depend on factors such as your energy consumption, the size of the solar system, and local electricity rates. In some cases, you may even generate excess electricity, which can be credited or sold back to your utility company.
Yes, there are various financial incentives available for solar panel installations in many countries. These incentives can include tax credits, rebates, grants, and net metering programs. It’s advisable to research and consult with a local solar installer or energy authority to understand the incentives and subsidies available in your area.
Yes, it is often possible to add more solar panels to an existing system in the future. This depends on the design and capacity of your current system and the available space for additional panels. It’s best to consult with a solar professional to assess the feasibility and compatibility.
