We have just completed a solar upgrade at Aberbargoed Primary School ☀️

The existing 16 x 240W solar panels were replaced with just 8 x 510W modern, high-efficiency panels. Despite using half the number of panels, the new system will generate more power while giving the roof a much cleaner and more modern appearance.

The panels were also installed in-roof, creating a sleek finish that perfectly complements the school’s new roof. 🔋⚡

Do you have an older solar system with less efficient panels? Upgrading your existing solar panels could help you generate more power from the same roof space, improve the appearance of your installation and make better use of modern solar technology.

If your solar system is starting to show its age, get in touch with Elec Tek Installations to discuss upgrading your panels and getting more from your roof. ☀️🔌

☀️ Another solar & battery installation completed in Caldicot! 🔋⚡

We’ve just completed this impressive 22-panel solar PV installation, carefully designed across 4 different roof areas, including a flat roof to make the most of the available space.

🔆 22 solar panels
⚡ 9kW Fox ESS UK hybrid inverter
🔋 2 × EP12 batteries – a huge 21kWh of battery storage
🚗 MyEnergi Zappi Glo EV charger

The combination of a large solar array and 21kWh of battery storage gives the customer excellent potential to generate, store and use much more of their own renewable energy, while the Zappi Glo provides convenient EV charging at home.

No roof space? No problem. ☀️🚗

We’ve just completed something a little different for our customer in Wenvoe – a solar PV installation built into a high-quality aluminium carport.

Instead of using the house roof, we supplied and installed a stylish aluminium carport fitted with 15 x 515W DMEGC solar panels, providing an impressive 7.7kW solar PV system while also creating covered parking for two vehicles. Installed with a 7KW Fox ESS UK inverter and EP12 battery to maximise savings

To make the most of the installation, we also fitted:
⚡ An myenergi EV charger mounted directly to the carport.
🔌 A weatherproof socket outlet, perfect for powering a vacuum, jet wash or other outdoor equipment.

This project is a great example that you don’t need suitable roof space to benefit from solar. A solar carport can generate significant amounts of clean electricity while adding a practical and attractive feature to your home.

If your roof isn’t suitable for solar, get in touch with Elec Tek Installations to discuss the alternatives. There may be a solution that’s perfect for your property.

Another solar installation completed in Cardiff! ☀️

We’ve just finished installing this stunning 16-panel solar PV system for our customer in the Heath area of Cardiff.

The all-black panels look fantastic on the new slate roof, delivering a sleek, modern finish without compromising the character of the property.

This system is powered by a Fox ESS UK 5kW hybrid inverter and an EP12 battery, allowing the homeowner to maximise their solar generation, store excess energy for later use, and reduce their reliance on rising electricity prices.

Another stunning solar PV installation completed for a beautiful home in Bassaleg, Newport. ☀️

This customer chose a high-performance system consisting of:

✅ 24 × 465W all-black solar panels with a 25-year warranty
✅ Fox ESS 9kW hybrid inverter
✅ Fox ESS EP12 battery providing 11.52kWh of energy storage, backed by a 10-year warranty

The numbers speak for themselves:

💷 Estimated yearly savings: £1,781
💷 Estimated lifetime bill savings: £68,000

And that’s before taking advantage of off-peak electricity tariffs to charge the battery overnight, which could increase the savings even further.
The environmental impact is just as impressive as the financial savings. 🌍
This system will reduce the home’s carbon emissions by approximately 2 tonnes of CO₂ every year. Over its lifetime, that’s the equivalent of:

🌳 Planting 407 trees
🚗 Avoiding 63,363 km of driving in a typical petrol car
✈️ Preventing the emissions from 45 long-haul flights

Investing in solar isn’t just about lowering your energy bills—it’s about making a lasting difference for the environment too.
If you’re considering solar and battery storage, there’s never been a better time to reduce your energy bills, gain greater energy independence, and invest in your home’s future.

Another couple of solar PV installations completed.

These were labour-only installations for a fellow renewables company, but although the end customers weren’t directly ours, we still delivered the same high standards, attention to detail, and pride in our workmanship that we bring to every project.

Job 1
☀️ 10 solar panels installed across two roof elevations – one pitched roof and one flat roof.

Job 2
☀️ 18 solar panels installed on a slate roof.

We believe every installation should be completed to the highest standard, regardless of the project. Clean, tidy workmanship and attention to detail are what set us apart.
