Is It Worth Getting Solar Panels?

Is it worth getting solar panels in the UK?
For 90% of UK homes with suitable roofs: YES — decisively. The evidence: £580-£1,100/year savings, 8-12 year payback, 100-400% ROI over 25 years, 0% VAT (saves £1,000-£1,600), 25-30 year lifespan, tax-free returns, inflation protection, and 1.3 million UK homes already proving it works. The 10% where it is NOT worth it: north-facing roof only, heavy unresolvedable shading, very poor roof condition, or moving within 2 years. For everyone else: the longer you wait, the more savings you miss.
