Solar panels & complete PV kits
Whether you are wiring a whole-house array, a garden office or a campervan, a matched solar panel kit takes the guesswork out of sizing. Every kit pairs the panels with a compatible inverter, mounting and cabling, so the parts work together.
Buying panels on their own? We stock monocrystalline PV modules in the popular home and commercial wattages. We also list flexible panels for curved and weight-sensitive roofs, while trade and bulk pricing applies across the whole range.

How to choose solar panels & kits
Start with your daytime usage and your roof space. A roof with a clear south, east or west face gives the best return, while heavy shade cuts output sharply. Therefore, check for chimneys, trees and nearby buildings before you pick a kit size.
Next, compare the panel wattage with the inverter rating. A kit works best when the two are close in size, because a very small inverter wastes power on bright days. For example, a larger array needs an inverter of a matching size.
Finally, think about growth. If you may add a battery later, choose a battery-ready kit now. Likewise, check that the mounting suits your roof covering, since tiles and slate need different fixings.
Read our solar panel kits buying guide for a step-by-step sizing method. Furthermore, our solar inverter comparison shows how to pair a kit with the right inverter, and our home battery storage cost guide covers adding storage later. To complete the system, you can also browse solar inverters and mounting and fixings.

Solar Panels & Kits — common questions
What size solar panel kit do I need?
It depends on your roof space and daytime usage. As a rough guide, 1kWp needs about 5–6m² of roof, and a typical UK home installs around 3.5–6kWp. Our kits buying guide walks through sizing in detail.
Can I use a campervan solar kit on a shed or boat?
Yes, because 12V and 24V leisure kits suit any small off-grid load. That includes campervans, caravans, boats, sheds and garden offices. The key is to match the charge controller and battery to the panel wattage.
