Local knowledge
Are solar panels worth it in Manchester?
Short answer: on most roofs, yes. Manchester sees roughly 900–1,000 kWh a year for every kW of panels, so a typical 4kW array generates around 3,500–3,800 kWh — enough to cover a big share of daytime demand from spring through autumn.
What makes the sums work here is pairing solar with a home battery and a time-of-use tariff. The battery stores cheap overnight power for dark winter evenings, so your home power costs stay low in the months the roof does little. That's the difference between a system that looks good on paper and one that actually saves money.

- What is a home energy audit?
- We read your bill and half-hourly data, walk the fabric of the house and rank what will actually cut your bills — before anyone mentions hardware. Free, remote or on-site.
- Do you fit smart homes too?
- Yes. We're a smart home fitter as well as an energy installer: lighting, heating, security and monitoring in one app, alongside your solar, battery and charger.
- How do I start saving energy at home?
- Draughts, insulation and controls first, then generation and storage. Most Manchester homes find a few hundred pounds of savings before spending on kit.
- Is it one team or subcontractors?
- One accountable team from survey to home fit and aftercare, using certified electricians and our own vetted partner installers.
