Why Install Solar Panels?
1. Lower Electricity Bills
Fed up with rising energy costs? Solar panels offer immediate savings for Northfield households. Our customers see their bills shrink straight away, with benefits that keep growing year after year.
2. A Cleaner Planet
By installing solar panels on your Northfield property, you're actively cutting greenhouse gases and improving air quality in our urban environment. You'll be doing your bit to help the UK reach its target of reducing carbon emissions by 68% before 2030.
3. Beat Energy Costs
Tired of unpredictable energy bills? Northfield households with solar panels are shielded from these fluctuations. By generating your own electricity, you'll be less affected by market price hikes that leave many struggling.
4. Minimal Upkeep
Today's solar panels (PV panels) are built tough with little upkeep needed. Most come with warranties up to 25 years, making them a solid long-term investment even with Birmingham's famously changeable weather.
5. Property Value
Houses with renewable energy installations often fetch higher prices when sold. This makes solar panels a smart home improvement that pays off now through energy savings and later if you decide to sell your Northfield property.
6. Government Support
The UK government's Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) pays you for sending spare solar energy back to the national grid, creating an extra income stream. Until March 31, 2027, you'll also enjoy zero VAT on solar panel installations, greatly reducing your upfront costs.
7. Energy Independence
Solar panels give you freedom from reliance on big utility companies and their unpredictable pricing. This self-sufficiency proves priceless during grid problems or power cuts that might affect Edgbaston properties without warning.
8. UK Green Revolution
By choosing solar, you're joining a community of forward-thinking Northfield locals making a real difference. Together, we're helping the UK move towards its ambitious 2050 net-zero carbon emissions target.

Solar Panel Installation Process
1. Roof Access & Preparation
We start with proper scaffolding tailored to your Northfield home's height and access requirements. Our thorough roof survey checks the condition, tile arrangements, and potential challenges specific to your property before we begin.
2. Mounting Structure Installation
We carefully remove just enough tiles to expose your rafters, then secure strong hooks directly into them. Everything is replaced exactly as it was, with waterproof flashing added to keep your Northfield home dry, even with Birmingham's famous rain. The mounting rails are then secured with high-quality fixings for decades of stability.
3. Panel Installation
With the frame ready, we clamp your panels securely in place. Our local installers ensure each panel is precisely aligned for optimal sun exposure, vital for getting the most efficiency in Northfield's residential setting.
4. Electrical Integration
We wire the DC output from your panels to an inverter, which converts it to usable AC power. All cabling is neatly tucked away and properly sealed. We connect the system to your property's electrical supply with all necessary safety measures, and work with the local District Network Operator (DNO) to secure your connection to the grid.
5. Commissioning & Certification
Before finishing, we run thorough safety and performance checks. You'll receive all documentation including manuals, warranty details, and maintenance instructions. We register your system with the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS), ensuring compliance with UK standards.

FAQs
How Much Do Solar Panels Cost In Northfield?
The cost varies depending on system size, placement, and installation requirements. Typical costs for Northfield homes are:
2 kW system – £2,500 to £3,500
4 kW system – £5,000 to £6,000
6 kW system – £9,500 to £10,500
For Northfield businesses:
10 kW system – £13,000 to £15,000
50 kW system – £33,000 to £60,000
100 kW system – £60,000 to £120,000
These are only estimates. We provide detailed, no-obligation quotes after assessing your specific needs.
Why Should Northfield Properties Pair Solar Panels With A Battery?
A battery system lets you store extra power generated during daylight hours for use after dark or during peak rate times. This increases self-consumption from about 50% to 70% - 80%, maximising your savings.
Since each unit of electricity you use saves you from paying the grid rate (around 27p) rather than earning the lower export rate (around 10p), the financial benefits add up quickly.
A battery also provides backup during power cuts and can charge when overnight rates are cheap. Most batteries pay for themselves within 6-10 years while giving you greater energy independence.
What Solar Battery Size Is Right For My Northfield Home?
The right battery size depends on your solar system size and energy usage patterns. As a starting point, these pairings typically work well for Northfield homes:
2 kW solar PV system – 4 kWh battery
3.5 kW solar PV system – 5 kWh battery
5 kW solar PV system – 10 kWh battery
Our team can assess your specific needs and recommend the perfect battery size for your Northfield property.
