The annual savings provided by this setup are up to £4,000. A 1-year workmanship warranty starting the date of exchange is included. The solar panels were fitted in 2022 but then in 2025 the Tesla was added by Green Energy Solar. This is a spectacular addition to the property and allows the house to be future proofed from an eco and cost saving perspective. Further improvements include Triple glazed windows including the conservatory, which was installed by Anglian, with a new Nolan warm roof added recently, the total cost being Conservatory and warm roof £17,000, whilst the windows cost front and back circa £20,000.
