Solar Photovoltaics (PV)
Installing Solar Photovoltaics (PV) offers a smart, cost‑effective solution for your energy needs. Solar panels reduce your carbon footprint, help preserve the environment, and save your business money on energy bills over the long term. Because they require virtually no maintenance, solar panels empower you to take control of your energy.
How does solar work?
Solar panels contain multiple photovoltaic cells. When sunlight hits the cells, the electrons charge and create a direct electrical current (DC). Wires carry this current to a solar inverter, which converts the power into alternating current (AC) electricity that feeds your property. You can store any excess power in a battery storage system or export it to the grid and potentially claim smart export guarantee (SEG) payments.
Solar Installation
Design – Our team conducts a desk‑based assessment and site survey, then designs a system that best suits your energy requirements.
Grid and Planning Consent – When required, we guide you through the process of obtaining the necessary permissions to install.
Installation – Our installers mount solar panels on your roof or ground area and connect them via an inverter.
Commissioning and Certification – Our qualified electricians connect your system to your on‑site supply, commission it, and test it.
Monitoring and Maintenance – After installation, you monitor your system remotely to track performance and usage. Although solar requires little maintenance, you should schedule periodic inspections. You can carry out visual checks yourself, while a qualified electrician handles technical assessments.

Solar Mounting Systems
Trapezoidal or corrugated roofs – These roofs suit on‑roof systems well. Solar panels sit on a framework above the roof line.
Slate or tile roofs – You can install an on‑roof system, but many prefer an in‑roof system for aesthetics. In this case, you remove the slate or tile and replace it with a mounting tray, integrating the panels into the roof.
Flat roofs – You can use a tray or rail system to mount the panels at a shallow angle. Installers typically secure the system with ballast to resist wind loads.
Ground mount systems – You can choose from several options. The most popular uses frames pile‑driven or screw‑driven into the ground with panels installed on top. Alternatively, you can use concrete ballast to secure the system. In most cases, installers place the inverters underneath the panels.
