Your local commercial and domestic solar PV specialists
Generating and saving money through PV solar can have a great impact on business profitability, improving the bottom line, reducing daily running costs whilst also improving brand credentials. We specialise in the installation of domestic and large scale commercial PV solar installations on buildings with extensive roof areas, for example factories, industrial units, farm buildings and schools.
How PV Solar Works
Panel Types
The most common types of solar panel are monocrystalline or polycrystalline, but you can also find thin film solar panels.
Monocrystalline are made from single silicon crystals. They are usually black in colour and tend to be the most energy efficient type of solar PV panel.
Polycrystalline panels use a combination of different silicon crystals melted together and have a blue appearance.
Thin Film solar panels are relatively new to the market and include a very thin layer of amorphous silicon which makes the panels thinner, more flexible and more effective in low light. They are usually cheaper than crystalline panels but not as efficient or widely tested.
Solar PV Tiles As an alternative to fitting solar panels on top of your existing roof, it’s now possible to install solar PV tiles. They use the same technology as traditional solar panels, but are designed to blend in with your home’s architecture as part of the roof.

Benefits of Solar Panels
Our customers tell us that getting a solar PV installation is one of the most rewarding things they have ever done.
PV systems, being a source of green electricity, save carbon dioxide emissions and mitigate climate change. You generate your own electricity, becoming more self-sufficient, especially if used alongside battery storage – that means lower bills. And then there is the excitement of pioneering new technology, and helping the environment at the same time. All this can be achieved whilst offering substantial financial savings, meaning you can be green and rewarded for it at the same time.
