Bespoke solar PV systems
Designed for your property and the way you use energy.
Every installation starts with an assessment of your roof, shading, orientation and electricity consumption. We then prepare a tailored design covering the proposed equipment, expected performance and key financial information.
Our Design My System service gives us the information needed to produce an accurate system design and quotation.
Our solar installation service can include:
- Solar PV system design
- Roof survey and structural calculations where required
- On-roof, in-roof, flat-roof and ground-mounted systems
- Solar inverter selection and installation
- DNO applications and notifications
- Building Regulations compliance
- Monitoring setup and handover
- Battery storage and EV charger integration
- Solar PV maintenance, fault-finding and upgrades
Recognised standards
MCS-certified solar installation.
Renewable Specialists is an MCS-certified installer and a member of the Renewable Energy Consumer Code. Eligible MCS-certified installations can support access to Smart Export Guarantee tariffs, subject to the chosen energy supplier’s requirements.
We use carefully selected MCS-approved equipment and install systems from leading manufacturers including SolarEdge, SolaX, AlphaESS, myenergi, Sunsynk, Tesla and Sigenergy. The right equipment depends on the property and how you use energy, so we explain the options before you decide.
Use more of your own energy
Solar panels with battery storage.
Adding battery storage can increase the amount of solar energy you use at home. A battery stores surplus daytime generation for use later and may also charge on suitable off-peak tariffs. We can design a new solar-and-battery system together or assess adding storage to an existing solar PV installation.
