Installation packages3kW solar installation package
3kW hits a sweet spot for many Essex homes: meaningful bill savings without needing the largest roof area. Full MCS install, monitoring, and optional battery add-ons available.
Installation packages3kW solar installation package
3kW is a popular size for typical UK terraces and semis with good south or west orientation. It balances capital cost, roof use, and annual generation for many Essex households with moderate day-time consumption.
The package covers design approval, mounting, panels, inverter, electrical work, testing, and MCS handover. Optional batteries can be quoted with a hybrid inverter if you want storage within the next few years.
BlankSolar installs with quality mounting and partner-branded equipment — layouts are shared before install day so you know where panels will sit.
- Strong fit for many family homes
- Layout and yield estimate before install
- Optional battery add-on at quote stage
- Fully insured, MCS-certified team
Popular domestic size
Balances cost, roof use, and annual generation.
Efficient layout
String design balances performance across the day. We use quality mounting — including Clenergy and Van Der Valk systems where specified.
Bill savings
Day-time self-consumption reduces import costs; surplus can be exported via SEG. We model realistic savings — no exaggerated payback claims.
Upgrade path
Hybrid inverters and batteries can be added later if you choose a forward-compatible design at survey stage.
3kW install process
Same professional standards as larger systems.

System size
Choosing a solar system size
BlankSolar installs packages from 2kW to 6kW, and larger systems where the roof and supply allow it. Size should follow the property, not a default package.
Batteries
Battery storage for UK homes
A battery lets you keep solar generation for the evening instead of exporting it straight away. Here is when it helps, and what installation involves.
Installation
What to expect on install day
A typical home installation is planned around scaffolding, roof work, and electrical commissioning. Here is how the day usually runs.
