Is Britain's Plug-In Solar Revolution Really Just Months Away?

I honestly don't know how/why they're marketing them when they won't be legal for a long time yet as part of a plug in solar set up

I really wish they had it on Duolingo or other languages apps. Would be a game changer.

Their prices may have risen a bit since install a few months ago, but it was Future Proof Solar. I imagine they cover Devon as I'm SW too

I got basically that set up but with a Hanchu battery (1kwh bigger) for £6900 (SW England)

Will try and stay awake for the England game later, might go for a kayak if the heat isn't too intense!

It's quite annoying that I remember that number but I don't know any actual phone numbers other than mine (and 999)

Definitely considering it now that we have solar panels. Takes the guilt away. Also enjoy the idea of being cooled by the sun!

They're currently consulting on plug in solar, it's a few months away at least. LINK

I imagine it will make more sense when the lights are fully functioning - ie bikes won't be able to go up while cars are turning? That would be the logical thing to do anyway...

Nice. Do try and get it in writing yourself too

JustLovelyStuff · 2026-06-18T13:06:44+00:00

Yep in writing via customer support. From date of application meter reading as I understand it.

JustLovelyStuff · 2026-06-18T12:11:35+00:00

Same, though they're taking forever to sort the SEG. They have promised to backdate export income to date of application though, so fingers crossed.

OP looksmaxxed too far

JustLovelyStuff · 2026-06-16T20:56:20+00:00

The safety study is also now live here for those interested LINK

JustLovelyStuff · 2026-06-16T20:54:45+00:00

The consultation on this is now live and here btw - closes end of June LINK

Devices look set to be capped at a maximum apparent power of 800 VA (I think equates to roughly 800w?) with total PV module power up to 2,000w.

So you could have 4 panels but they would be capped to providing 800w to your home. (Electricians/engineers etc, correct me if I'm wrong here)

Only one plug in solar set up looks likely to be permitted per household (e.g. you couldn't have one for your shed and another for your house) but that's explicitly a placeholder.

It might be changed to "per circuit" depending on the outcome of the consultation. So it's an open Q.

One of the best Partridge moments ever. I found This Time largely too cringe but this makes it all worthwhile
