Solar PV & Battery System

Our solar PV installation service helps homes across Devon & Cornwall generate their own electricity. Solar PV panels on your roof turn sunlight into DC power. Then, an inverter converts this into AC electricity for use in your home.

We can fit panels on your roof, in your roof or on the ground. Many people prefer the look of solar tiles, although they do cost more. Your panels should last around 25 years. However, you will probably need to replace the inverter once in that time.

The great thing about solar PV is that it needs very little maintenance. We recommend a professional check every 3 to 5 years to review readings and performance. Other than that, simply keep the panels fairly clean and make sure growing trees or bushes do not shade them.

By combining solar PV with battery storage, you are no longer limited to using electricity only when you generate it. Instead, you can store spare energy from the day and use it when you need it most, such as in the evening. As a result, your system runs more efficiently and you rely less on the grid. This gives you more control over your energy use and long-term costs.

Thanks to advances in battery technology, you can now have battery storage installed on its own, without solar panels. This makes it ideal for homes with little or no roof space. For example, you can buy electricity overnight at a cheaper off-peak rate, store it in your batteries and then use it during the day.
