Questions and answers

Sources and references:

1. The actual saving is £1,328 - correct at 1 October 2023. To reach this savings claim we’ve utilised the standardised guidance and calculations from MCS. The claim is based on the following assumptions 1) Your home is on the South Coast of the UK 2) You have a south facing roof that’s not shaded and sloped at 41° 3) You have 12 415W solar panels and a 9.5 kWh battery installed 4) You’re home all day with an annual electricity consumption of 3,100 kWh per year, pay 27p per kWh for your electricity unit rate (our Standard Variable Rate correct at 1 October 2023) this does not include your energy standing charge. 5) You are signed up to our exclusive SEG rate for customers who purchase solar & battery from us 6) You use 51% of what you generate and receive a separate payment unit rate of £0.20p for the remaining 49% that you export.

2. The actual saving is 93% - correct at 1 October 2023. To reach this we’ve utilised the standardised guidance and calculations from MCS. The claim is based on the following assumptions 1) Your home is on the South Coast of the UK 2) You have a south facing roof that’s not shaded and is sloped at 41° 3) You have 12 415W solar panels and a 9.5 kWh battery installed 4) You’re home all day with an annual electricity consumption of 3,100kWh per year, pay 27p per kWh for your electricity unit rate (our Standard Variable Rate correct at 1 October 2023) this does not include your energy standing charge. 5) You use 2872kWh of the 5632kWh that your solar panels generate, which leaves only 228kWh to be covered by the grid. From these assumptions, you will consume 2872kWh of the electricity generated by your panels. Your estimated annual electricity consumption for your home is 3,100kWh, and 2872kWh is equal to more than 90% of 3,100kWh. If your roof is shaded or isn't south facing, these figures are likely to be lower, actual savings are dependent on your property type, roof type, area and location.

3. If you buy solar panels and a battery from us, and OVO supply your energy, you'll be eligible for our anytime SEG rate of 20p per kWh rate (correct at 1 October 2023). You'll need to sign up to our SEG tariff to get this rate. This SEG rate is exclusive to customers who get solar panels and battery from OVO. You’ll also need a smart meter.

4. Solar electricity is low carbon, renewable energy. According to the Energy Saving Trust, a typical home solar system could save around 1 tonne of carbon per year. This will depend on where you live in the UK, how many solar panels you have, and how much electricity you use from your solar panels.

6. Our 20p and 15p per kWh SEG rates are correct at 1 September 2023. The 20p per kWh SEG rate is only available to customers who buy solar panels, a battery and their energy from OVO. The 15p per kWh SEG rate is only available to customers who buy solar panels and their energy from OVO. You'll need to sign up to our SEG tariff and have a smart meter. If OVO supply your energy, we can install a smart meter for you. If OVO don't supply your energy, your SEG rate will be 4p per kWh.
