Wall-mounted plug-in solar
No roof? Use the wall.
Four plug-in solar kits on an adjustable stand that fixes to a sunny house wall: a gable end, the side of an offshoot, the long back wall. Plug into an outdoor socket and your home uses the power first.
Could save around £180 a year*Max 1260W kit · best-case set-up · busy family home
*Our estimate for the Max 1260W kit facing south at 30° with no shade, in a busy four-person home using 70% of what it makes, at the Ofgem price cap rate of 26.32p per kWh (1 Oct to 31 Dec 2026). That's around £1,760 over 10 years and £3,430 over 20. A panel on a wall sits steeper than 30°, so a wall set-up makes less: we're checking wall figures before we publish them. See the working.
01
What a sunny wall can generate
Every kit sends up to 800W (799VA) into your home while the sun is on the panels. The fridge, the router and the washing machine use it first, so you buy less from the grid.
South, south-east and south-west walls do best. An upright panel also faces the low winter sun almost square-on.
- Up to 799VA into your home, from every kit
- Plugs into a weatherproof outdoor socket within 4m

02
Pick a kit, pick an angle
All four kits share the same adjustable hybrid stand. Choose by the clear wall space you have. The angle is set on the stand when the wall is assessed.
The Plus 1030W and Max 1260W have more than 960W of panels. Have an electrician check your electrics before you plug one in.
03
The wall check every install needs
The maker asks for a professional assessment before any wall install. It confirms the wall can carry the kit and picks fixings to suit it.
Our ten-point check comes first. In two minutes it tells you if your wall is worth booking an assessment for. Three things rule a wall out straight away:
- A wall on a property boundary, or one shared with a neighbouring home
- Any building with timber, ACM, MCM or HPL cladding
- A building having external wall remediation
04
You fit it, then plug it in
Once the wall is assessed there's no installer to book and no scaffolding. The kit runs off a 4m lead to an outdoor socket, so it sits fairly low on the wall.
Fix the stand as the maker's manual and your assessor set out, plug in, and register the kit free online.
- A weatherproof outdoor socket within 4m. No socket? An electrician can fit one.
- Modern RCD protection in your fuse box, or an electrician's check
- A quick call to your home insurer

Wall questions, answered
Which walls can take a kit?
Your own solid house wall: brick, block, stone, or render over masonry. Not a wall on a property boundary or shared with a neighbour, not a building with timber, ACM, MCM or HPL cladding, and not one having external wall remediation. A professional assessment comes before any fixing.
Do I need an electrician?
Not to plug it in, if you already have a weatherproof outdoor socket within 4m and modern RCD protection. If you don't, or you're not sure, an electrician can fit the socket or check your fuse box. Kits with more than 960W of panels should have an electrics check either way.
Does a wall panel make as much as a roof panel?
Over a whole year, a panel at about 30° facing south makes the most. A wall panel sits steeper, so it makes less over the year, though it catches the low winter sun well. We're checking wall figures against a published solar model before we put numbers on them.
Can I put kits on two walls?
No. The rules allow one plug-in kit per household, so choose your sunniest wall and give it the whole kit.
