Services
Solar PV
We design and install grid-connected solar PV systems that reduce energy costs while lowering carbon emissions. Our MCS-accredited installations include system sizing consultations, inverter selection, and integration with battery storage. Using advanced testing equipment, we ensure optimal performance and longevity for residential and commercial properties.
Air Source Heat Pumps
Our Daikin-certified heat pump installations provide efficient heating and hot water solutions. We handle complete system design, including thermal assessments and MCS accreditation processing. As Boiler Upgrade Scheme registered installers, we help clients access government grants while ensuring compliance with MIS 3005 standards.
Electrical Services
We offer full-scope electrical services from rewiring to energy-saving upgrades. Our NAPIT-certified team performs fault finding, EICR testing, and lighting design. All work complies with Part P regulations, ensuring safety and regulatory compliance for domestic and commercial properties.
Battery Storage
Our GoodWe-certified battery storage solutions maximise solar energy utilisation. We provide system sizing consultations and integration with existing PV arrays. The installations include monitoring systems to track energy consumption patterns and optimise grid independence for both residential and commercial clients.
EV Charging Points
We install smart EV charging systems compatible with major vehicle brands. Our solutions include load management integration with solar PV systems and compliance with OLEV regulations. Each installation includes user training and ongoing technical support for optimal charging efficiency.

Questions
What renewable energy grants are available?
We help clients access the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant for air source heat pump installations. Our MCS accreditation ensures eligibility for Feed-in Tariff payments for solar PV systems.
How do solar PV systems work with existing electricity?
Our installations integrate with existing electrical systems using inverters to convert DC to AC power. Excess generation automatically exports to the grid, with net metering tracking your energy credits.
What maintenance do renewable systems require?
Solar PV systems need annual inspections using thermal imaging to detect panel degradation. Heat pumps require quarterly filter checks and annual refrigerant level assessments to maintain optimal efficiency.
Can renewable systems work off-grid?
While most installations remain grid-connected for reliability, we design hybrid systems with battery storage that can operate independently during power outages using smart energy management systems.
How long do installations typically take?
Residential solar PV installations complete within 2-3 days. Heat pump projects take 5-7 working days including system commissioning. Commercial rooftop projects average 2-4 weeks depending on system complexity.
What happens during winter months?
Our heat pumps maintain efficiency down to -25°C using Daikin's cascade technology. Solar PV systems generate reduced output in winter, though battery storage optimisation helps maintain consistent energy availability throughout colder months.
