Solar PV turns daylight into electricity for your home. Adding a battery lets you store what you don’t use during the day, or charge it on a cheap off-peak tariff and use it at peak times. We’re qualified in solar PV and battery storage installation and will give you a straight answer on whether it’s worth it for your property.
Options we install
- Solar PV systems for homes, farms and businesses
- Battery storage added to new or existing solar
- Battery-only systems for off-peak tariff savings
- Upgrades to older solar inverters
- Combined solar, battery and EV charger setups
How we approach it
- A survey of your roof, supply and energy use
- Realistic generation estimates, not sales figures
- Notification or application to the network operator where needed
- Neat installation, tested and certified
- A full handover so you know how to monitor your system
Generation and savings figures are estimates and depend on weather, usage and tariffs.
Questions
Does solar really work in Scotland?
Yes. Panels work on daylight, not heat, and cooler temperatures actually help their efficiency. Output is lower in winter, which is why a well-designed system and a battery make the biggest difference.
Do I need planning permission?
Most roof-mounted systems on homes don’t, but listed buildings and properties in conservation areas may. We’ll check before any work is agreed.
Can I add a battery to my existing panels?
Usually, yes. Depending on your current inverter, we can add an AC-coupled battery or upgrade to a hybrid inverter.
Can I get paid for the electricity I export?
Many energy suppliers pay for exported electricity, but eligibility depends on the supplier and the installation’s certification. We’ll explain what applies to your system before you commit.
