A Real\-World ROI Analysis](https://the-keoghs.com/2026/04/one-year-of-home-solar-was-it-worth-it-a-real-world-roi-analysis/): Is a £24,000 home solar panel system actually worth it? After one full year of measuring real data from my solar panels, Tesla Powerwall 3 battery, and myenergi Eddi hot water diverter, I crunched the numbers to find out\. Using 12 months of half\-hourly grid import/export data, EV charging records, and solar generation figures, I calculated the true ROI – not from installer projections, but from actual measured consumption\. The results surprised me: a total annual value of £3,534\.79, giving a payback period of just 6\.8 years on a £24,000 investment\. The biggest insight? Electricity savings – what you don't have to buy from the grid – are worth more than double the export earnings\. This post breaks down the full methodology, the maths, the seasonal patterns, and practical lessons for anyone considering solar in the UK\.
