B Solar installed my system 10months…

B Solar installed my system 10months ago and I couldn’t be happier!

When looking for solar panels, B Solar was recommended to me. At the quote stage they were competitively priced and were the only supplier that also came to visit the site. I was provided with realistic expectations for what I could achieve with the roof space I had (not always the case with some others). Went with a 20 panel install with twin battery storage.

Install was quick and on schedule and Mike even had the scaffold up a couple of days early so I could get some repair work done on a couple of tiles before they started. The team were fantastic and explained how the different phases were done to optimise panel efficiency.

When the work was done, Mike explained the system operation and set it up for me. Even recently when I needed help setting up charging of the batteries from the grid (during cheap night time electric) on bad weather days in winter, a quick message to Mike and he called back to talk me through it. I honestly couldn’t be happier and it’s performing really well, even a little better than I expected.

I would highly recommend B Solar to anyone looking to get an efficient solar system suited to their individual needs.

Ground mount system with battery

B-Solar installed a ground mount system with battery for us.

Mike and his team were extremely courteous and professional. He listened to what we wanted and worked with us to come up with a solution rather than trying to force a solution upon us.

The workmanship has been exemplary and the aftercare faultless. I would happily recommend to anyone.

Very pleased with the installation

I'm really pleased with my solar panel and battery installation. Mike listened to what I wanted and installed the perfect system with bird proofing. (You really must get bird proofing to avoid future problems with nesting.) The installation team were very polite and accommodating. 22 panels were fitted (split east/west) with 15.6kWh of usable battery storage. The hardware only took a few days to install but because my electrical wiring had additional requirements (islanding and backup via a new second consumer unit) it took a bit longer to complete.

I've had the system for 6 months and during the last 5 (May to Sep) my monthly electricity bill shrank from £400 to £50, and £30 of that is the standing charge for being connected to the grid. In other words, solar has provided 95% of our electricity for 5 months this year. On most days it generated 2 to 3 times what we consumed so it was fed back into the grid to generate a little bit of income. During the winter we'll set the batteries to charge at night on cheaper electricity to provide us with energy during the day. I bought the system to save money in the long term and have emergency backup. Overall I do recommend B Solar Energy.

Friendly and efficient service

B Solar Energy provided a very speedy installation service and good support. We value being able to contact Mike easily and the fact B Solar Energy is a local company. We got the sense that this company will be able to meet our needs for additional installations.

Great, straightforward solar install

Mike and the team supplied and installed solar and battery storage for us. Very good on helping us to specify the system. The installation team were really efficient and did a great job. The system has done everything they promised and we are really happy with it.

Good from quote to installation

From quote to installation, from administration to installers, we found B Solar Energy to be informative and helpful.
After a lot of deliberation, we choose to take the plunge and go for solar and battery installation. We contacted a number of companies and by far the quickest and informative response was B Solar Energy. After the initial contact and exchange of site information we were visited by B Solar Energy who talked us through the type of equipment they could provide and the process of installation that would be best for us.
A competitive price was agreed along with an installation date. On the day of the installation the weather was horrendous, with freezing temperatures and snow laying. However, true to their word, B Solar Energy arrived and carried out the work in a friendly and efficient fashion, answering any questions asked as they went along. They minimised the power supply disruption into the house to just a few minutes and installed the panels and battery with minimum fuss, clearing away all packaging and waste.
Having had the system for over 2 months we can honestly recommend B Solar Energy.

B-Solar exceeded my expectations

B-Solar were the only company I contacted who were willing to offer an initial site visit. Mike, aided by Benjamin, were very pleasant and recognised that I had a reasonable knowledge of what I was looking for. I'd spent time getting some rough roof measurements, getting hold of my energy consumption data and had thought about panel location and how I wished to benefit from excess daytime power generation that wouldn't be consumed, i.e. battery storage and a quality app to monitor what was happening. Mike quickly recognised this and configured a solution which was around my budget.
Moving on to installation, Mike's scaffolders were efficient and pleasant to have around. Fitting lasted 2 and a bit days, Matt the roofer and Harry the electrician involved me in all aspects of the fitting, explaining and agreeing where needed. When I asked Matt to reconfigure 4 lone panels on the front of the house this was not a problem. He was very precise about the 19 panels on the back which, all laid in my specific landscape arrangement, look very neat and stylish! Harry worked in my garage agreeing placement of the batteries, inverter and cabling. Both Matt and Harry were very happy to engage in conversation and I enjoyed having them around. Mike has followed up to check that I'm happy with the system, which I am, and all in all I cannot rate B-Solar high enough.

Solar PV Advice and Installation, Essex

Dear Mike,
I am writing to thank you and express our appreciation for the personal and friendly service that you gave us when we started to pioneer the idea of using PV at home.

It was a journey of learning for us so that we knew we were installing equipment from the right manufacturers, installed by the right people and to the right specification. So with my engineer’s need to understand the system fully, we were grateful for your patience in helping us get to that point. We were particularly pleased with the interaction with and efforts of your team who were as particular as me in getting it 100% right.

Having seen other PV panel installations not done by yourselves, ours is a master piece as every panel is perfectly level and even. Thank you Matt.
Additionally we’re grateful for you completing all the compliance paperwork and certifications so we can be part of and feed back to the grid.

Energy security, even at the micro generation level, is important, so the extension to the system enabling us to use our stored power and inverter during a power cut will be a further benefit, especially if there are issues mid-winter as we’ll be able to keep the heat on.

We’re now enjoying free electricity and the ROI is significantly more than any other commercially available investment we could have made.

With regards,
Simon
Takeley

Solar Solution by BSolar Energy

I had a system fitted by BSolarEnergy people almost two months ago. Mike made everything so straightforward without over selling which made me instantly believe their approach. I had spent many months researching and quoted all sorts of weird values. The guys who fitted it were very professional and knowledgeable. They were so organised and kept me abreast of their progress. They even cleaned up after themselves. It's only been a couple of months and it's being winter but the battery system coupled to my solar panels has performed better than we expected. I will only recommend that if you’re considering installation, consider a bigger battery to cover late night use-age otherwise you pay higher rate for the Grid feed. I'd recommend the company without hesitation.

Friendly efficient company

Really pleased we took 'the plunge' and installed PV panels and battery storage using Bsolar Energy. Mike made the whole process easier by being very patient in answering all our questions and by not having a 'hard sell' attitude. Even after install Mike will always reply to any queries. Once agreed, Mike set an install date, with no money changing hands until the install was complete. The team were all very friendly and helpful - any issues being quickly resolved. A local firm with a great team which we can honestly highly recommend.

I had the pleasure of working with Bsolarenergy

I had the pleasure of working with Bsolarenergy recently to construct a solar PV system on my house, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The crew was knowledgable, skilled, and committed to making sure I received the greatest system for my needs from beginning to end. The crew took the time to thoroughly and informatively answer all of my questions and handle any concerns I had during the initial appointment. They delivered a thorough proposal explaining the project's parameters, associated expenses, and anticipated time frame. The installation personnel was timely, effective, and respectful of my property once we decided to go ahead with it. They made sure to handle any problems or unforeseen difficulties that came during the installation process and kept me updated every step of the way. The final result is quite stunning. I never imagined my solar PV system could provide that much power, and I'm pleased to be helping the environment and lowering my energy costs at the same time. Overall, I am pleased with Bsolarenergy and thank you for your hard work.

Great Stuff

The team were efficient, focused, friendly and polite. They even came a day early.
the morning they came, we were consuming power from the grid, by 2.30pm, 15 panels were fitted and we were consuming the gift of Mother natures kilowatts.
No pun intended- it was a very Positive day.
I Highly recommend Bsolarenergy

Friendly and efficient solar installation

We liked Mike's low pressure selling, he knows exactly what you need in a very confusing market. His team are friendly and polite. We had batteries installed too and we're enjoying seeing how productive the panels are, and surprised how much they have generated through a dull winter. Would thoroughly recommend BSolar.

Solar system installation with battery and iboost

We had our solar system installed a few weeks ago and are overall quite pleased with how the system is doing. We went with the additional battery and iboost option and its proving to be enough to meet most of our energy needs. The Solax app is quite intuitive and offers a range of useful functions.
The solar system install took 4 days with scaffolding going up 2 days before the install and coming down 2 weeks after the installation. During the install everyone was friendly, courteous and professional and were kind enough to answer our neverending questions . Harry (electrician) showed me how the various bits came together with what the system can and cannot do . This prompted us to go with additional battery after the install had started , which Mike was able to supply and install within a couple of days. The solar system install took 4 days with scaffolding going up 2 days before the install and coming down 2 weeks after the installation.
Overall , we are very happy with Mike and his team . Thank you
