Jump in installation of solar panels and heat pumps in UK homes
Daily Post
|August 07, 2025
A RECORD number of solar panels, batteries and heat pumps have been installed in UK homes and buildings in the first six months of 2025, figures show.
-
Data from MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme), the quality mark for small-scale renewables, found there were more than 172,000 certified installations between January and June this year.
That is up 37% from the same period in 2024 and a third above the previous record high start to the year, in 2023, the figures show.
The MCS said the jump in installations was being driven by three technologies: solar panels, electric heat pumps and battery storage.
The top technology is solar panels, with 123,000 certified installations in the first six months of 2025 - a record that breaks the previous January-to-June high set in 2012.
