Solar panels on your home can add value



Solar panels on your home can add value, so says a recent US report.  The number of homes with solar photovoltaic (PV) systems in the United States has been estimated at more than half a million.  A new report led by the US Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and a home appraisal expert conducted a study to determine the value added to private homes with solar PV systems. 

They did note some differences depending on the underlying system used, age of the system and local market characteristics but they found that - in general, when comparing 'like for like' - having a solar panel system installed added value to the home.

Larkfleet Homes offers new homes with solar PV systems fitted as standard on many sites. This means you can produce your own electricity.

Homes with solar panels fitted as standard can be found at our Hempsted Park development in Peterborough and our Whittlesey Green development just on the outskirts of the town.  Slightly further afield, our Buttercross Park development in Oakham also offers eco-friendly and energy-efficient new homes.
