Solar panels

In 2025, AIKO was awarded the prestigious 'Top Brand PV 2025' seal for its solar PV (solar photovoltaic) technology, now recognised by five European markets, including the UK, Spain, Italy, Germany and Switzerland.

Their powerful, all-black panels have transformed the solar industry. Each one delivers a superior performance in real-world conditions, like extreme temperatures and partial shading. They also come with BOXT's two-year workmanship guarantee, as well as a 25-year manufacturer's warranty. And allow you to monitor your energy generation and consumption in real-time through a smart app.

“Bi-facial panels are a great piece of technology when used correctly. They’re generally designed for solar farms or ground-mounted systems where large amounts of sunlight can be reflected or diffused from the ground below.

However, when these panels are installed on homes, homeowners often don’t get the full benefit. This is because there is not enough space for sunlight to be reflected onto the back of the panels.”

“Solar panels can potentially reduce your annual energy bills by hundreds, if not thousands of pounds, depending on the size of your system and overall usage. Add a storage battery and you'll be able to use your free energy 24 hours a day.

The average four or five bedroom home with a 12-panel system and 5.3kW battery can save up to 76% on its annual energy bill. While a 10-panel system and battery on the same home could save up to 66% on its annual energy bill. These estimated savings and percentages are in line with the current energy price cap.”

Top tip: Panels with a longer lifespan will save you more money than panels with a shorter lifespan.
