Domestic Solar
Reduce your reliance on grid electricity with professionally designed Solar PV and battery storage. Request a tailored solar survey from Wootton Group.
Reduce the amount of electricity purchased from the grid.
Generate renewable electricity from available roof space.
Protect your household against future electricity price increases.
Monitor your electricity generation and usage through a smart app.
Receive payment for eligible surplus electricity exported to the grid.
Prepare your home for an electric vehicle or heat pump.
Add battery storage during the installation or at a later date.
A Solar PV system generates electricity during daylight hours.
Your home uses this electricity first. Any remaining electricity flows back to the grid unless another connected system uses or stores the surplus.
Solar PV without a battery often suits households with higher daytime electricity use. Common examples include home working, electric vehicle charging, appliance use or running a heat pump during daylight hours.
Our team reviews your electricity consumption before recommending a system size. This avoids unnecessary equipment and helps align generation with your household demand.
Battery storage helps you make greater use of the electricity generated by your solar panels.
Instead of exporting all surplus electricity during the day, your battery stores available energy for later use. Stored electricity supports your home during the evening, overnight or during periods of lower solar generation.
A suitable battery system helps you:
-
Use more of your own solar electricity.
-
Reduce electricity purchased during higher-priced periods.
-
Charge the battery through solar generation.
-
Charge from the grid during cheaper tariff periods where supported.
-
Monitor stored energy, household demand and grid use.
-
Build an energy system around future electric vehicle or heat pump use.
Battery capacity needs careful selection. A battery which is too small fills early. An oversized battery risks poor financial performance. Our design process matches storage capacity to your usage and expected solar generation.
Solar Panels
Solar panels capture daylight and generate direct current electricity.
Inverter
The inverter converts this electricity into alternating current for use throughout your property.
Household Use
Your property uses the available solar electricity before importing electricity from the grid.
Battery Storage
Where included, the battery stores available surplus electricity for later use.
Grid Export
Once household demand is met and the battery is full, eligible surplus electricity flows back to the grid.
Every property uses electricity differently. Your system design should reflect your daily routine rather than a standard package.
Our assessment considers:
-
Your annual electricity consumption.
-
Daytime and evening usage.
-
Roof size, condition, orientation and pitch.
-
Shading from trees, chimneys and nearby buildings.
-
Available space for an inverter and battery.
-
Electric vehicle charging requirements.
-
Current or future heat pump use.
-
Your preferred budget.
-
Network and electrical requirements.
Your quotation will set out the proposed equipment, system size, estimated generation, battery capacity, warranties, installation requirements and total price.
