The benefits of having Solar PV Panels installed
The sharp rise in energy costs has meant that more and more people are looking at tangible ways to not only reduce their energy consumption, but explore the possibilities of generating your own energy.
And your properties roof is an ideal location for energy generating solar PV panels harnessing the free energy emitted by the sun. As the technology has improved and production costs have reduced, solar panels are proven to provide reliable, low cost electricity to be used in your home. And the length of time it takes to recover initial installation costs has also dropped with most domestic PV systems paying for themselves within 10 years.
Current solar technologies mean you can expect 20 to 25 years worth of energy generation and associated cost savings. And as climate change challenges increase the development of clean affordable energy will accelerate, meaning cheaper, longer lasting PV panels are just around the corner. Some of the other benefits of having Solar PV panels installed are:
Reduce Your Energy Bills
Reduce Your Environmental Impact
Be less grid dependent
Low Maintenance Costs
Benefit from a return on your investment
Create surplus energy you can sell or store
On hand for expert advice
Our experienced team are on hand to help with all your questions. For example, many of our customers contact us with questions around how much space is needed for Solar Panels? Or is their roof suitable for solar panel installation? We can talk you through all the details and give you an accurate quote for the exact solution you need. And as Solar Panels fall under 'permitted developments' there is generally no need to get specific permissions for your install. (Although there are some exceptions for listed buildings for example. Again our team can advise you of any of these circumstances).
Additionally, as a resident of England, you could benefit from a Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) tariff. The Smart Export Guarantee is a support mechanism designed to ensure small-scale generators are paid for the renewable electricity they export to the grid. This scheme has been in place since 1 January 2020.
What is the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG)?
The Smart Export Guarantee is a government initiative overseen by Ofgem. All of the UK’s largest energy suppliers are legally obliged to offer the SEG, a growing number of smaller suppliers have also begun to offer this concession.
Essentially, a fee is paid per kWh for excess energy that is generated by renewable technologies after enough has been generated to power the home. Renewable technologies may include:
- Photovoltaic (PV) solar panels.
- Domestic wind turbines.
- Domestic hydroelectricity.
- Biomass energy from Anaerobic Digestion (AD).
- Micro-combined heat and power (Micro-CHP).
If you have installed PV solar panels or any other renewable energy generation technology in your home, but have not registered for the Smart Export Guarantee, you’re effectively pumping your excess energy into the grid for free. Unless you’re living completely off the grid, why not offset the cost of the energy you use with the SEG?
Who is the SEG for?
The SEG is for any household that has invested in any of the technology types listed above. The only stipulation is that installations must be based in the UK and have a maximum capacity of 5MW, or up to 50kW in the case of Micro-CHP.
This means that virtually anyone who generates their own energy, but is still connected to the grid, can benefit from the SEG.
And to really get the most from your solar panel installation, we recommend having a solar battery storage solution installed at the same time. This addition will mean that you will be able to store your solar energy throughout the day. You can then use it as and when you need it. Without having this solution installed you'll only be able to consume the energy as it is generated. The knock on effects of this are you'll have a far less cost-efficient system and ultimately a longer time until you cover your initial costs. We provide a number of different battery storage solutions and will be happy to talk them through with you.

Recent Customer Reviews
Roof refurbishment
Me and my wife recently moved to a new property with a solar panel system. We had to fix our roof which involved the removal and reinstallation of our solar array. We quickly found out that the company that installed this set up in the first place did a very poor job indeed: using the incorrect brackets on the roof, cabling loosely hung over the house and at times in the gutter, incorrect cabling and many other issues and problems. This “quality install” made a lot of sense as to why the company no longer exists!
We wanted to bring in local professionals with a good reputation to help with solar install. Mark and his team from MG Cavil &. Co were incredibly professional and helpful with the whole process. Mark offering up some great experience and insights around solar systems that we have little knowledge on. His team were also very knowledgeable and efficient, helping to remove our panels initially and when the roof was completed, a full reinstall. The reinstall was delivered to a very high quality finish, with new brackets, new cables and a significantly improved cable management. It looked like a brand new install by the time they were finished.
With everything tested and working perfectly, we couldn’t be happier with the work carried out and we highly recommend MG Cavil &. Co (specially to our friends and family). When we look to expand our solar system we will also be returning to Mark and his team.
George Watkins – November 2023
GivEnergy System Install
As I considered getting a solar install I requested quotes from three companies. Mark came out to see me almost immediately, talked me through what is involved and how to plan a suitable install. The knowledge and level of detail was superb and I confidently booked his team in for the install. Mark dealt with the applications required, had scaffolders come and set up well in advance of the start date and then his team arrived. Ultra professional, just got on with the install and I’m blown away by the quality of the set up they’ve delivered for us. I’m fascinated by the analytics we are getting through the GivEnergy system that Mark’s team has set up for us and very much looking forward to our first negative bill – just wish the clouds would go away!
Couldn’t recommend MG Cavill & Co more. If you’re after a solar set up make sure you speak with Mark!
Nick Ward – August 2023

Solar panel installation and electric meter upgrade
Solar panel installation and electric meter upgrade. General good advice, no pressured sales talk and could answer queries and questions honestly after being given incorrect advice by larger national company.
Lads who did the work were polite and friendly.
Anne Wilcock – January 2023
Solar Panel Installation
Solar panel installation . Mark explained very clearly to us the advantages and gave us the date the work would start (subject to weather) the work was completed in a professional manner by a great team and we are very happy to recommend this company.
Dave Smith – January 2023
Solar Installation
Excellent service from MG Cavill, their initial advice on our solar requirements was not what I had originally planned for but absolutely the right approach. Their engineers were first rate in the quality of their work and particularly their flexibility in adapting the installation to our specific requirements. We are very pleased with the final result coming in at a reasonable price given the amount of work involved. Overall, I would thoroughly recommend MG Cavill for any Solar or other electrical work.
James Johnston – April 2024
Solar panels, batteries and car charger
Mark and his team did an excellent job in re-tiling my garage extension, installing in-built solar panels, batteries, a car charger and refurbishing some of the electrics in the house – thank you. Highly recommended.
Andrew Heavyside – April 2024
The whole team were excellent
Did research beforehand and identified 3 potential suppliers. I chose M G Cavill because they have a good reputation, are local to me for support and the quote was clear and fair. The whole team are excellent and very knowledgeable, answering every question clearly and in detail. The actual installation was quick and very neat and tidy. Now enjoying substantial savings on my electricity!
