What affects the cost of solar panels in London?
- System size:
The number of panels depends on your roof space and electricity needs. A larger system costs more overall, but the installation cost per panel may be lower.
- Roof condition and access:
Roof height, pitch, covering and available working space affect the mounting method and scaffolding requirements. A survey will establish whether the roof is suitable for the proposed installation.
- Inverter and battery specification:
The choice of inverter and whether you include solar battery storage will affect the price. We identify optional equipment separately in the quotation.
- Electrical installation:
Cable routes, the position of the consumer unit and any necessary electrical upgrades are assessed before the final price is agreed.
Anker SOLIX Solarbank 4: New Solar Battery Storage in London
The Anker SOLIX Solarbank 4 E5000 Pro is the latest generation of Anker’s all-in-one solar battery. It combines a battery, inverter and solar controller in one compact unit, and it is a significant step up from earlier Solarbank models.
The main change is size and power. The Solarbank 4 stores almost twice as much energy as the Solarbank 3, accepts more solar panels, and can power more of your home at once. This makes it suitable for households with higher energy use, not just small balcony setups.
In the UK, the Solarbank 4 must be hardwired by a Part P-registered electrician. As NAPIT-approved electricians, we install, test and certify every system to BS 7671.

Solar Panels for Victorian Terraced Houses
Victorian terraced houses are common across West London, and many are well suited to solar. But they need careful planning. Roofs are often smaller, split into sections, and shaded by chimneys or neighbouring buildings. Many older homes also still have outdated wiring or fuse boards that need upgrading before a solar system can be connected safely.
Before any installation, we check your roof slopes, rear extensions and outdoor space to find the best position for your panels. Where the main roof isn’t suitable, a flat rear extension roof or a ground-mounted system in your garden is often a good alternative.
If your home is in a conservation area, such as parts of Chiswick, Acton, Kew or Richmond, panels facing the street may need planning permission. We’ll advise you on this before any work starts.
