Surveys
What happens on a solar survey
A survey is how we measure your roof, electrics, and energy use before anyone commits to panels. Here is what to expect, and what you will receive afterwards.
Export
Smart Export Guarantee, explained
The Smart Export Guarantee pays you for surplus electricity you send to the grid. Here is how it works, and why the paperwork from your installer matters.
Batteries
Battery storage for UK homes
A battery lets you keep solar generation for the evening instead of exporting it straight away. Here is when it helps, and what installation involves.
