Why Nexgen Compare

We'll save you time and give you the best recommendations

We're not an installer and we don't sell your details to the highest bidder. Partners pay a fixed fee only if you choose them, so our recommendations are never for sale.

Save weeks of research

Comparing every panel and battery on the market would take you weeks. We do it in seconds.

Bespoke recommendations

One short form about your home and we tell you which installers actually suit it.

Only the best products

Thousands of systems out there. We've picked the cream of the crop so you don't have to.

We're solar obsessed

We spend months researching kit and keeping our market data genuinely up to date.

Free, always

No fees and no charge for the comparison. You pay nothing to see your options.

Zero obligation

Look at your quotes, sleep on it, walk away. Nobody chases you.

Battery and finance too

See storage and funding options modelled alongside the panels, not as an afterthought.

Your data stays safe

UK-hosted, encrypted and never sold on to third parties.

No hidden costs

Full breakdown per quote, VAT included. The price you see is the price you pay.

The difference

Your home without solar vs with solar and battery storage

Same house, two very different energy bills. Here's what changes the day the system goes live.

Without a solar system

  • High and rising energy bills
  • 100% dependent on the grid
  • Bigger carbon footprint
  • No uplift in property value
  • No export payments or incentives
  • A home that isn't future proofed

With solar and battery

  • Bills cut by up to 70%
  • Real energy independence
  • Clean power from your own roof
  • Increased property value
  • Paid for surplus via the SEG
  • A completely future-proofed home

Reviews

Don't just take our word for it

Rated 4.8 out of 5 by homeowners across the UK on how quick, easy and genuinely useful the comparison was.

Cut our bills by more than half

I had three quotes within two days and the difference between them was nearly £3,000 for the same panel spec. The comparison table made it obvious which installer was actually the best value.

RB

Rachel Bennett

Guildford, Surrey · 6.4 kWp + 10 kWh battery

Installation quality was superb

The installer we chose through Nexgen was MCS certified and arrived exactly when they said. Scaffolding up Monday, commissioned Wednesday, and the roof was left spotless.

DO

Daniel Osei

Leeds, West Yorkshire · 4.8 kWp roof mount

No pressure, no cold calling

What I appreciated most was not being hounded. I got a clear results page, compared finance options in my own time, and only spoke to one company when I was ready.

PS

Priya Shah

Bristol · 5.2 kWp + EV charger

Finance options were explained properly

The breakdown of interest, monthly repayment and payback period side by side was genuinely useful. It felt like a bank statement, not a sales pitch.

MW

Mark Whitfield

Norwich, Norfolk · 7.1 kWp commercial

Bills down from £210 to £74

Even in Scotland the numbers stacked up. The estimate I was given during the comparison has been within about 6% of what we've actually generated this year.

SL

Sofia Lindqvist

Edinburgh · 5.9 kWp + 8 kWh battery

Excellent aftercare

A monitoring issue appeared two months in and the installer was back out within a week under warranty. Knowing partners are vetted made a real difference.

TR

Tom Reddington

Cardiff · 4.2 kWp roof mount

Still unsure?

Your solar questions, answered

Still wondering whether solar is right for your home? Here are the questions homeowners ask us most.

A solar photovoltaic (PV) system turns sunlight into electricity. It's made up of solar panels, an inverter and, increasingly, a battery. The panels capture daylight and generate DC electricity, the inverter converts it to AC for your home, and the battery stores anything you don't use straight away.

Most UK households cut 45% to 70% off their electricity bill, and more with a battery. Your exact saving depends on system size, roof orientation, shading and how much power you use during the day. Our free comparison models all of it before you speak to anyone.

Yes, with battery storage. The battery banks the surplus your panels generate during the day so you can use free electricity in the evening instead of buying it at peak rates from the grid.

Most panels are built to last 25 to 30 years or more. Manufacturers typically guarantee at least 80% of the original output after 25 years, so the savings keep coming long after the system has paid for itself.

In most cases, no — solar panels on a standard UK home fall under permitted development. Listed buildings and conservation areas are the usual exceptions, so it's worth a quick check with your local planning authority first.

Every installer we recommend is MCS certified, insurance checked and monitored on workmanship warranties and customer review scores. Anyone who slips below our standards is removed from the panel.

Completely free, with no obligation to go ahead. Partners pay us a fixed fee only if you choose them, and that fee never changes who we show you or where they rank.

Yes. Everything is encrypted, stored in the UK and GDPR compliant. We never sell your details — they only go to the installers you ask to quote, and you can ask us to delete them at any time.
