shed solar panel

Put solar panels on your shed! A great way to provide power for lighting or even power tools at the bottom of your garden.

Power is often wanted in sheds and garages, but it can be awkward and expensive to run long cables from the nearest power point. Solar panels, or in some cases small wind turbines, can be the ideal solution. It might be a single small solar panel used to power occasional low energy lighting, or a bigger installation giving enough power to drive an inverter producing mains voltage for power tools and other appliances.

For applications such as a garden shed or garage, framed solar modules tend to be the most appropriate power solution - the flexible modules we sell are better suited to expedition use (because they are light) or for use on boats where they can bend to a surface of a roof and have a low profile. Framed modules are generally cheaper for a given power output than flexible ones, and are more easily mounted unless you have a flat space to glue the thin, flexible panels down. They tend to be very robust and you can expect a very long working life with very little maintenance
