Solar panels in Leicester
A solar PV system lets you generate your own electricity directly from sunlight, cutting reliance on grid energy and helping to manage rising electricity costs. For homeowners, solar panels generate electricity throughout the day. Any energy you don’t use immediately can be stored in a home battery or exported to the grid for a payment. A commercial solar PV system can significantly reduce your purchased electricity. We design systems around your premises, energy demand and usage for a long-term investment.
Battery storage in Leicester
Battery storage lets you store excess solar energy and use it when you need it most. For homeowners, adding a battery means you use more of the electricity your panels generate, rather than sending surplus back to the grid at a lower rate. For businesses, battery storage can help smooth out peak demand charges and build greater energy security. We install battery storage as part of a new system or as a retrofit to an existing setup in Leicester, depending on what suits your property and energy goals.
Commercial solar & battery
For businesses in Leicester and across Leicestershire, solar PV and battery storage present a straightforward way to cut energy expenditure while making progress on sustainability targets and net zero goals. We partner with businesses in sectors ranging from automotive and retail to education and community organisations, designing renewable energy systems that integrate with your day-to-day operations. We offer solar PV, battery storage, energy monitoring, flexible financing and ongoing maintenance.
Residential solar & battery
For Leicester homeowners, combining solar PV with battery storage offers a practical route to generating, storing and using your own renewable electricity, cutting your dependence on grid energy and lowering your monthly bills. Our residential service takes you through every step: initial consultation, property assessment, system design, professional installation, commissioning and ongoing servicing. We assess your roof orientation, energy usage and goals to create a system that fits your home and budget.
