Our Solar Solutions

British Gas Solar Solutiont, including home solar panels

Solar energy is one of the greatest renewable energy sources available and British Gas can help you harness it.

Our Solar Thermal Hot Water systems can supply around 50 - 70%* of your hot water for free – so you can make a real difference to your home, your energy bills and the planet.


What are the benefits?

We’re experts in solar technology and our systems offer a range of benefits:

  • Solar energy supplements your hot water requirements, reducing the amount of gas you use throughout the year – especially during the spring and summer months.
  • The solar panels work on cloudy as well as sunny days – so you don’t need to live on the Costa del Sol to benefit from clean, renewable energy.
  • Our engineers will fit your solar system quickly and easily with minimum disruption to you and your home. It’s proven technology and easy to maintain.
  • Reduces your impact on the environment – the average domestic system reduces carbon dioxide emissions by around 400kgs a year, depending on the fuel replaced.
  • Can add up to £10,000 to your property price††
  • You can buy a solar system at the same time as your boiler or as a separate purchase.
