Harness the power of the sun

We’re all trying to make more of an effort to look after the planet and using solar energy to power our homes is becoming increasingly popular around the world. Solar panels on your roof or in the garden give you the option to become more independent from the grid, as well as reducing your household’s environmental impact. Depending on the size of your house, you’ll probably need between 6 and 14 solar panels, and they should last up to 30 years. We’ve made a YouTube video all about installing solar panels – take a look here to see what’s involved.

If you have solar panels, you’ll know that they generate the most energy during the day, when the sun is shining on them. But this is historically the time during which homes use the least amount of electricity – when you and your family are out at work or school. So what happens to that surplus energy?

Store your solar energy and save money

Tesla Sigen SOne way you can use your excess solar energy is to sell it back to the grid via your electricity supplier – which will of course reduce your overall bill.

But perhaps you would prefer to retain all the energy you generate. Installing a solar battery means that instead of selling the electricity you generate back to the grid, you can conserve this energy to use when you need it – perhaps to power your home when the sun goes down or to charge your electric car. A solar battery means a greater proportion of the electricity you use will be a low-carbon option to fossil fuels. You’ll also use less energy from the grid and therefore have lower bills.

From the 1st of February 2024, the government has announced 0% VAT on Battery only installations or installations where you add a battery to an existing Solar PV System. Get in touch to benefit from these savings now!

We are Tesla Powerwall Approved Installers – meaning we can install a Tesla Powerwall Battery for your home or business whether you have existing solar or want a standalone battery storage system to leverage cheap overnight tariffs such as Octopus Go or Agile.

Tesla has just announced the launch of the Tesla Powerwall 3 in the UK and we are excited to be one of the first companies to install them. Get in touch if you would like a quote for the Tesla Powerwall 3. 

We also install the following brands of battery storage systems: SigEnergy SigenStor, Tesla Powerwall 3,  MyEnergi Libbi, GivEnergy All In One, SolarEdge and the list keeps growing so please get in touch if you have a specific preference that is not on the list.

We can install your renewable energy solutions

We offer a bespoke solar and battery storage installation service: we can install a new array of solar panels on your roof or in your garden, whichever is more appropriate for you. We can also supply and install the equipment you need to convert and store that solar energy, or sell it back to the grid.

We also supply and install solar energy diverters such as the MyEnergi Eddi device to harness solar to heat your hot water via an immersion heater or to control your heat pump.
