Experts in Renewable Energy

Installing solar panels on your home can help you reduce your electricity bills, secure your future energy supply, and even earn money by selling surplus power back into the National Grid. Using clean, renewable energy you’ll cut your carbon footprint and improve the value of your property.

The right solar panels for your property, installed by a qualified engineer, can be paired with Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) to store surplus energy (from sunlight – or cheap off-peak electricity generated by the grid) to use when required. This offers even more savings and can help homeowners become more self-sufficient, and security against future energy price rises.

How does it work?

Step 1

Contact us to discuss your requirements - we will discuss your current energy usage, systems, and tariffs, budget, timescales, and any low-carbon goals.

Step 2

We will visit your property to assess its suitability for various options - size, access, age, insulation, number of/proximity to other properties, and your existing systems will all influence our recommendation. We will also advise and assist with any relevant applications for government grant funding or to eg UK Power Networks/National Grid if required.

Step 3

Depending on the system you have chosen, we will advise on any preparation for the day of installation required - typically this is minimal.

Step 3

Once the system has been installed and tested, we will walk you through the controls and give you a thorough handover, along with all operating and maintenance and warranty documents.

FAQs for homes

There is a range of grants and financial support available for homeowners having renewable energy products installed, with the main options including:

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) for homeowners living in England and Wales who are replacing a fossil fuel heating system. This is currently a grant of up to £7,500 towards the cost and fitting of an air source heat pump, biomass boiler (up to £5,00), or heat battery system (up to £2,500). Installers must be MCS-certified and a member an approved consumer code such as the Renewable Energy Consumer Code.

Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) tariffs, which ensures people living in England, Scotland, Wales who generate renewable electricity (eg solar panels) are paid for the electricity they feed back into the National Grid. You’ll need to apply directly to an energy supplier that offers SEG tariffs (it doesn’t have to be the same supplier that provides your energy). Ofgem has a list of SEG suppliers and at Barton Knight Energy we are happy to help you find the right option for your circumstances.

Some larger energy suppliers may also offer support for low-income households (who must meet certain criteria) with funding towards insulation, boiler upgrades, and solar panels.

Your local council may offer regional grants for low carbon heating options and more, depending on your eligibility. If you live in South or West London or the Home Counties, we are happy to help you find the right support. 

 

We recommended annual servicing – just as you would with a gas boiler system – for all renewable  technologies to ensure the best performance, safety and durability.

All our work has a 1-year no-quibble warranty on defective parts; on EV charger installations parts and labour are guaranteed for 3 years.

The NICEIC insurance-backed warranty covers work undertaken by contractors registered with the NICEIC Installer Scheme.

An NICIEC Part-P Domestic Installer, Barton Knight is a Which? Trusted Trader and part of the government-endorsed quality scheme, Trustmark.

We also hold several specific renewable energy accreditations, including MCS certification for small-scale installations (e.g. solar panels, battery storage, heat pumps), membership of the Renewable Energy Consumer Code (RECC), and are a Trusted Partner of Octopus Energy.
