Solar PV, battery storage and EV charging

The renewables half of the name. For clients who want to bring consumption down while the electrics are open anyway — we handle the survey, the load assessment, the install and the notification.

Renewables that fit the supply you've actually got

The failure point on most commercial solar and EV projects isn't the panels or the chargers — it's the incoming supply. A row of fast chargers in a car park can ask more of a building than everything else in it put together, and finding that out after the order is placed is expensive.

So we start with the load assessment and the existing infrastructure, and we tell you early if a supply upgrade or a DNO application is going to be part of the job. Then we design to what the site can carry, install it, and notify it properly.

What we install

  • Solar PV — commercial roofs and domestic
  • Battery storage and hybrid inverters
  • EV charge points, single bay to multi-bay car parks
  • LED lighting upgrades and lighting design
  • Load assessments and supply upgrades
  • Metering, monitoring and DNO applications

Done while the electrics are open. If we're already on site for a refit or a rewire, adding LED upgrades, EV points or PV is far cheaper than coming back for it later. Worth asking at survey stage.

Detail

How we approach a renewables job

  • Load assessment before anything else

    We work out what the incoming supply can carry before specifying kit, not after.

  • Honest about supply upgrades

    If the site needs a bigger supply or a DNO application, you'll hear it at quote stage while it can still be budgeted.

  • Installed by the same engineers

    Renewables are electrical work. The people doing your solar are the people doing your fit-outs, not a separate subcontracted crew.

  • Notified and certified

    DNO notification, commissioning records and certification handled as part of the job.

Common questions

Before you call

Do you do domestic solar as well as commercial?

Yes, though the bulk of our renewables work is commercial roofs and car parks.

Can you install chargers across several sites?

Yes. Multi-site programmes are how we work on the retail side, and EV rollouts run the same way.

Will my supply take the chargers I want?

That's the first thing we check. Sometimes the answer is no without an upgrade, and it's better to know at the start.

Got a site that needs power?

Send the basics and we'll come back the same working day. For loss of supply, call instead.
