UK Sets New Record for Solar and Battery Installations in 2025
The first half of 2025 has seen a remarkable milestone for the UK’s renewable energy journey. According to industry reports, more than 170,000 new solar panel systems were installed nationwide between January and June, alongside a record 20,000 home battery storage systems.
This achievement highlights the growing appetite for affordable, sustainable energy and the increasing role of battery storage in helping households and businesses cut costs while reducing carbon emissions.
Why This Matters for Businesses
- Lower operating costs – generating clean energy on-site reduces reliance on volatile grid prices.
- Energy independence – batteries store excess solar power, making businesses less vulnerable to peak-time tariffs.
- Carbon reduction – supporting ESG commitments and compliance with sustainability regulations.
- Resilience – protection against blackouts or grid instability.
Driving Forces Behind the Growth
- Rising electricity costs encouraging organisations to invest in self-sufficiency.
- Government commitments to net-zero and the Future Homes Standard, setting higher energy efficiency targets.
- Advances in solar panel efficiency and falling costs for battery storage.
