Oxted Solar Panel Project: Surrey Residential Installation
Sunbright Energy is pleased to announce the successful completion of a cutting-edge solar installation in Oxted, Surrey. This project, carried out on a detached family home, was completed on-time and features 20 high-performance 430W Eurener solar panels, a PUREDRIVE 5kW battery storage system, and a Solis Hybrid 3.6kW solar inverter.
Maximising Solar Efficiency
To optimise energy generation throughout the day, the solar panels were strategically positioned with 50% on the east side of the roof and 50% on the west. This arrangement ensures that the panels capture sunlight from sunrise to sunset, maximising efficiency and energy production. By harnessing the morning sun on the east side and the afternoon sun on the west, the system provides a steady and balanced energy output, significantly enhancing overall performance.
Advanced System Components
The 20 Eurener 430W solar panels are designed for high efficiency and durability, making them ideal for long-term energy production. Paired with a Solis Hybrid 3.6kW inverter, the system seamlessly converts the DC electricity generated by the panels into AC electricity, ready for use in the home. Additionally, the PUREDRIVE 5kW battery storage system allows the homeowner to store excess energy generated during the day, making it available for use at night or during periods of low sunlight. This setup not only maximises self-consumption but also provides greater energy independence and resilience against grid outages. To find out more about solar batteries, read our blog post.
Full re-roof for the Solar Installation in Oxted
In addition to the solar installation, Sunbright Energy also undertook a full re-roof of the property before installing the solar panels. Renewing the roof before installing solar panels offers several key benefits. A new roof ensures that the structure is in optimal condition to support the solar system for decades to come, reducing the likelihood of any future maintenance issues. It also maximises the lifespan of both the roof and the solar panels, as they age together, ensuring a seamless and efficient system.
By addressing any potential roofing concerns upfront, homeowners can avoid the cost and inconvenience of having to remove and reinstall panels in the future, should roof repairs be needed. This proactive approach not only safeguards the integrity of the solar installation but also adds value to the property overall.

Estimated Savings
Environmental Impact and Energy Savings for a Solar Installation in Oxted
Installing solar panels in Oxted offers significant environmental benefits, reducing the home’s carbon footprint by lowering reliance on grid electricity. The system is expected to generate approximately 6,828 kWh of electricity per year initially, contributing to a total of 160,438 kWh over 25 years. Of this, 119,882 kWh will be consumed on-site, reducing the household’s carbon emissions and contributing to a cleaner environment.
Financially, the solar installation in Surrey is expected to provide substantial savings on energy bills, with an estimated £171,703 saved over 25 years. The initial investment of £19,711.36 is projected to be recouped within 6 years, thanks to the significant reduction in energy costs. The net present value (NPV) of the project is an impressive £158,043.30, indicating the financial viability and long-term benefits of this investment. The system also boasts an Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 17.8%, highlighting its profitability compared to other investment options.
