Home Solar & Battery Storage

Generate your own electricity — and take control of your energy bills

Every unit of electricity your roof generates is a unit you don't buy from your supplier. Lower bills, payment for the power you export, and protection from future price rises — all from a system that quietly does its job for decades. As an MCS certified installer, we design and install solar panels, battery storage, or both, tailored to your home and how you use energy.

Why go solar?

Six reasons home solar has never made more sense

Lower electricity bills

Power your home with free electricity from your own roof during daylight hours, and buy less from the grid.

Get paid for what you export

As an MCS certified installation, your system qualifies for the Smart Export Guarantee — so your supplier pays you for the surplus electricity you send to the grid.

Protection from price rises

The electricity your panels generate costs the same on the day you install as it does in ten years: nothing.

0% VAT

Solar panels and battery storage for homes currently qualify for zero-rated VAT, making now a particularly cost-effective time to install.

A greener home

Cut your household carbon footprint with clean energy generated on your own roof.

Add value to your property

Energy-efficient homes with lower running costs are increasingly attractive to buyers.

Solar, battery, or both?

The right setup for how you actually use energy

We'll look at your usage, your roof, and your tariff, and recommend the setup that actually makes sense for your home — not just the biggest system we can fit.

Solar panels only

The right choice if you're home during the day and can use most of your generation as it's produced — washing, charging, heating water while the sun's out.

Solar plus battery storage

A battery stores your surplus daytime generation so you can use it in the evening, when most households use the most electricity. Far more of your solar power gets used in your home rather than exported — and far less bought from the grid at full price.

Battery only

Already have solar? Or want to charge a battery on a cheap overnight tariff and use that stored power during expensive peak hours? A standalone battery can work hard even without panels.

MCS certified

Why choose an MCS certified installer?

MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) is the recognised quality standard for small-scale renewable installations in the UK. Energy & Utility Group is an MCS certified installer — certification number IAA-10311.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Most are. South-facing roofs perform best, but east- and west-facing installations still generate well. The free survey will tell you exactly what your roof can do.
