For those seeking a seamless integration with their home’s aesthetics, our in-roof solar panels offer the perfect solution. These panels are designed to fit flush with your roofing material, providing a sleek and sophisticated look. By replacing a portion of your roof with solar panels, not only do you generate clean energy, but you also maintain the natural lines and beauty of your home. Ideal for new builds or those considering roof renovations, in-roof solar panels blend functionality with design elegance.
Our on-roof solar panels are a popular and versatile choice, suitable for a wide range of homes. Mounted on top of your existing roof, these panels are supported by a robust framing system that elevates them above the roofing surface. This installation method is straightforward, cost-effective, and compatible with almost any roof type. While they are more visible than in-roof panels, the gap beneath them helps keep the panels cooler, potentially enhancing efficiency. Choose on-roof solar panels for a practical, efficient solar solution that maximizes your investment.
We offer a flexible approach to solar energy with our wall-mounted solar panels. These are the very same high-quality solar panels we supply from Q-cells for traditional installations, adapted to be mounted vertically on walls. This approach is perfect for properties with south-facing walls that are fully exposed to sunlight, allowing you to harness solar power even when roof space is limited or unsuitable.
Our wall-mounted panels are installed using a specialized mounting system, designed to secure the panels vertically while ensuring they capture as much sunlight as possible. This method opens up new possibilities for solar installation, especially in urban environments or for buildings where roof mounting is not an option.
Ground mount solar panel systems are pretty straightforward. They’re solar panels installed on the ground rather than on a roof. Here’s why they might be a good pick:
- Flexibility in Placement: You can put them anywhere on your property that gets good sunlight, which means you’re not limited by roof space or orientation.
- Easy to Clean and Maintain: Since they’re on the ground, they’re easier to access for cleaning and any repairs.
- Optimal Orientation: You can angle them perfectly towards the sun to maximize energy production, which isn’t always possible with roof-mounted systems.
Main point? They’re a solid choice if you’ve got the space and want to maximize your solar energy harvest. Plus, easier maintenance is always a bonus.
We pride ourselves on partnering with globally renowned brands such as Tesla and Qcells, known for their cutting-edge technology and sustainable practices.
Investing in solar energy is not just a step towards a greener planet, but also a smart financial decision. Our Solar PV and Battery Storage options are designed to maximize your energy savings, reducing your electricity bills significantly over time. The initial investment is offset by the long-term savings, making it a win-win for you and the environment.
- Handpicked Supplier Range: We believe in quality over price or quantity. Our choice of three suppliers represents the pinnacle of solar and battery technology. Each brand is a leader in the field, known for pioneering advancements in renewable energy. This selective approach ensures that you have access to the best options the market has to offer, without breaking the bank.
- Exceptional Warranties: Our confidence in the quality of our products is matched by the robust warranties provided by our suppliers. These warranties are a commitment to the longevity and performance of our offerings, giving you peace of mind in your investment. With our products, you are assured of reliability and support for years to come.
We are frequently approached with inquiries regarding our preference for certain solar panels and inverters, as well as the rationale behind these choices. The solar panel manufacturing industry is vast, encompassing hundreds of companies, predominantly situated in Asia, particularly in China.
This market dominance led to the phasing out of major European brands, including Germany’s Solar World. Following Solar World’s decline, we transitioned to Qcells, originally a German company, later acquired by Hanwha of South Korea. Qcells has made significant investments in cutting-edge factories and research and development facilities in Germany, consistently delivering some of the most advanced and cost-effective modules available.
Also, we occasionally utilize REC and Sunpower, particularly when specific dimensions and mounting systems are required.
Benefits of Solar
Solar panels offer a wealth of benefits that extend far beyond their environmental impact. Firstly, they significantly reduce electricity bills, as harnessing the power of the sun to generate energy for your home means less reliance on the grid. This can lead to substantial savings, especially over the long term.
Additionally, solar panels can increase the value of your property, making it an attractive investment for homeowners.
They also offer a degree of energy independence, providing a reliable power source that can protect against fluctuating energy prices and supply interruptions. Moreover, for those looking to reduce their carbon footprint, solar panels are an excellent choice.
In essence, domestic solar panels offer homeowners a smart, cost-effective solution to today’s energy challenges, providing substantial financial savings, enhancing environmental sustainability, and ensuring energy security.
Expanding this to the commercial sector, solar PV systems not only mirror these benefits on a larger scale but also contribute significantly to corporate social responsibility goals and operational efficiency.
Together, domestic and commercial solar PV installations signify a pivotal shift towards renewable energy sources, driving forward a greener, more resilient future for all.
