Grid-Tied Solar
What is grid-tied solar?
Grid-tied solar is a popular choice for households wanting to reduce power bills without the upfront cost of a battery. You’re still connected to the grid and use free power from your solar panels first before drawing from the grid when needed.

for savings.
How does solar power work?
From the sun to your household appliances, solar power uses the sun’s renewable energy to create power for your home. If you have a battery, you can store solar energy to use when the sun’s not shining. Depending on the system you have, you can still use power from the electricity grid, or be completely off-grid.
Solar panels usually sit on your roof, capturing sunlight. Inside each panel, solar cells convert sunlight into DC electricity.
The inverter converts DC into AC electricity, making it usable for your home. It also monitors your system to keep everything running smoothly.
Once converted, the electricity moves through your switchboard, which sends power to your lights, appliances, and anything else that needs it.
Your home always uses solar power first. Any extra is automatically sent back to the grid, which may earn you credits.
A battery stores unused solar energy, providing backup power at night or during outages, ensuring your home stays powered even when the sun isn’t shining.
A monitoring system tracks how much energy your solar panels are making and how much power your home is using - all from an app or website.
Getting set-up
with solar
From start to finish, we make the installation process simple and stress-free.
Here’s what to expect.
-
Start by giving us a call or sending an email to arrange a chat with us. We’ll discuss your energy needs and schedule a home survey at a time that suits you. During the visit, we will assess your property, consider factors like roof space and backup requirements, and ensure we design the best system for your home.
Step 1
-
Following your survey, we’ll put together a tailored solar proposal outlining the best system for your needs, along with a detailed quote. Once you’re happy to move forward, simply sign the agreement and pay a deposit to secure your installation.
Step 2
-
We take care of all the necessary paperwork, including applying for district network approval (DNO) and notifying your electricity provider about your solar installation. This process typically takes around a month, and we’ll keep you updated along the way.
Step 3
-
We will install your solar system with minimal disruption—most residential installations are completed in just a few days. Once everything is in place, an independent inspector will approve the system and set up your new import/export meter.
Step 4
-
Once your system is live, you’ll start generating your own clean, green energy! We’re here to support you beyond installation, offering a 10-year workmanship guarantee and full technical support for your system.
