✨ Final job of 2025 completed!!

Module relocation: The new tenant of this building required us to remove a section of the existing 100kWp PV array down the roof to allow for the installation of coffee roasting flues.

This process required us to remove and relocate the modules, optimisers and mounting structure. Additionally, we needed to reconfigure the DC cabling and install cable containment on the roof.

Many thanks to WT Scaffolding Ltd for supplying the scaffolding and also to St Ives Safety Nets for supplying the netting, ensuring safe work around the skylights.

✨🎄 We would like to thank all of our customers for their support throughout 2025. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year! ✨🎄

In recent weeks, our team has been busy working on various commercial and residential solar energy system projects.

This work involved repositioning one of our customers' inverter for a planned expansion at the rear of the building. Including relocating the entire setup, along with all cabling and containment, as well as re-terminating the connections.

Whether through new installations or system upgrades, we strive to support a sustainable energy future. Providing a complete service, from site surveys to commissioning and maintenance. We are dedicated to working closely with customers to achieve their energy goals and pride ourselves on excellent workmanship and after sales service.

🌦️🔋Benefits of battery storage in winter 🔋🌦️

We often get asked whether solar panels can effectively produce energy during the winter months? The good news is that solar panels do work in winter, although winter does bring shorter daylight hours, resulting in reduced energy production. Making a battery storage unit essential for your system.

🔋 Store excess energy: Solar batteries can store the excess energy generated during peak sunlight hours, providing a reserve to draw from during cloudy days or at night. This reduces reliance on the grid, leading to potentially lower energy bills.

🔋 Night rate tariffs: Consider charging your battery from the grid during off-peak hours when electricity rates are lower, ensuring you have a backup when solar production dips.

🔋Energy Security: In the event of a power outage, solar batteries can provide an uninterrupted power supply, ensuring that essential appliances and systems continue to operate.

🔋 Reduced carbon footprint: Using stored solar energy reduces the need for electricity from fossil fuel based power plants, contributing to a reduction in carbon emissions.

By investing in a battery storage unit and optimising your solar panel system, you can overcome the challenges of winter energy production and enjoy the benefits of renewable energy all year round 💡

If you would like more information on how a battery storage unit can benefit your system please get in touch with our friendly team.

🔆🔋Our most recent project at bott UK in Bude focused on the re-powering of their existing 10kWp solar array🔋🔆

This involved removing all modules and the mounting structure, followed by the installation of an additional 36.0kWp on the South East and West elevations of the building. All necessary approvals were signed-off with National Grid as part of the process

Additionally, there is another 50kWp system, bringing the total installed capacity to just below 100 kWp. This system was not installed by us, but we have performed corrective work on it in the past. The aim is to add more systems in the future to help reduce their substantial imported energy costs.

We will also be installing a monitoring system that will allow the site to track the performance of all 3 systems, along with imported and exported energy. Providing a clear overview of their energy usage.

👷🏻‍♂️Special thanks to WT Scaffolding Ltd for providing the scaffolding and keeping us safe during this project!

🔆 We have been very busy over the last few weeks completing a range of projects for Residential, Commerical and Operations and Maintenace Solar Energy Systems 🔆

🏠 Residential - Our residential customer had experienced a shattered module that was affecting performance and wanted to replace all modules (re-power) for a higher output. The original installation (not completed by us) was subpar, all cables connectors and optimisers lying scattered across the roof.

We upgraded the system from 265W to 445W, securely mounted all optimisers to the structure and ensured that connectors were tied and supported to prevent any contact with the roof. Additionally, we notified his Feed-in Tariff supplier about the increased capacity and provided the necessary documentation required.

🚨 Commercial - Seymac Distribution
We were asked to install a fireman's switch on the outside of this unit for insurance compliances. In the event of a fire, the fire brigade can isolate the DC supply from the modules within the building before entering. Not originally installed by us.

🔆 Thinking about going Solar? 🔆 Here are a few reasons why you should consider making the switch ⬇️

As the world shifts towards more sustainable energy solutions, solar power stands out as a leading option for both residential and commercial properties.

⚡️ Reduce your energy bills
One of the most immediate benefits of solar power is the reduction in energy bills. By harnessing the sun’s energy, you can generate your own electricity and significantly cut down on your monthly utility costs. This not only provides immediate savings but also protects you from future energy price hikes.

♻️ Clean, renewable energy source
Solar energy is a clean and renewable source of power that does not produce harmful emissions or pollutants, making it an environmentally friendly choice. By choosing solar, you contribute to a sustainable future and help reduce the carbon footprint.

💸 Potential for income
Not only can solar energy save you money, but it can also generate income. With schemes like the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), you can sell any surplus electricity back to the grid. This means that your solar panels can sometimes earn you money, providing an additional financial benefit.

🏠 Boost your property value
Homes and businesses with solar installations often see an increase in property value. Buyers are increasingly looking for energy efficient and environmentally conscious properties, and a solar system can be a key selling point. It signifies modernity and sustainability, making your property more attractive to potential buyers.

👷🏻‍♂️Low maintenance costs
Solar panels require minimal maintenance, making them a hassle free investment. Once installed, they typically only need cleaning once or twice a year and routine inspections to ensure optimal performance. This low maintenance aspect adds to the overall cost effectiveness of solar power.
