For a typical 3-4 bedroom house in Central Scotland, a standard 4kW solar panel system costs around £5,500 to £7,500 fully installed. That includes panels, inverter, roof mounting, all wiring, DNO notification, and your MCS certification.
If you want to add battery storage at the same time, expect £9,000 to £12,500 for a combined solar and battery system. For larger homes or higher energy usage, a 6kW system runs from around £8,000 to £10,000.
0% VAT until March 2027 — Solar panels and battery storage are currently 0% VAT, which saves you around 20% compared to the standard rate. This is automatic and applies to all domestic installations.
Most of our customers see their electricity bills drop by 50-70%. The exact savings depend on your roof orientation, how much electricity you use during the day, and whether you add a battery to store excess generation.
We install JA Solar, Canadian Solar, Jinko, and Trina panels with SolarEdge, Growatt, or Fox ESS inverters across Central Scotland. Mackie Electrical Services provides a free survey and a fixed quote — the number we give you is the number you pay.
