Solar & Battery installation

Techfor Energy installed my solar in late Jan this year, and shortly afterwards my Tesla battery & I've never looked back. Best decision of my life in regards to my energy usage. Since April I've mostly been off grid, both for electricity & gas (as I also had a EDDI installed which heats the water). In 6 months my setup has produced some 2700 kwh from 13 panels (& we haven't had a great spring/summer yet!) From beginning to end, through the initial conversations with owner Glenn, then through his very comprehensive roof survey, installations & subsequent aftercare (with the inevitable questions with regards to app customisations), the whole process has been efficient & stress free. Great job Glenn.

SOLAR PANEL INSTALLATION

MY JOURNEY INTO SOLAR POWER! Best thing I ever did was phoning Tech4energy and speaking with the owner, Glenn. I made an initial appointment and Glenn visited promptly and carried out a full survey of my home’s potential for Solar Panels. The survey was extremely comprehensive and the following week I received a very detailed report with options and the relevant costings. At no time did I feel pressured to adhere to Glenn’s advice but I am happy I took it. Day of installation arrived and everything went extremely smoothly and to plan. The guys installing were extremely neat and tidy and everything was completely cleared up at the end of each day. On the 3rd day in the afternoon the Solar Panels went Live I had a battery installed and Electric Vehicle charger. These were suggested by Glenn and have proved to be invaluable. The battery stores up power during the day and I am running my home on Solar power. I have purchased an electric vehicle and a full charge costs approximately £7.50. I’m also now using my Tumble Dryer regularly - previously a once in a blue moon luxury. I cannot thank Glenn and his Company enough for the quality of my installation. My electric bill is now minimal and I am no longer afraid to use my electric appliances. My quality of life is so much improved and I just wish I’d switched to Solar Power sooner. If you are hesitant to install Solar Panels be assured it’s a win-win decision with this company I haven’t looked back Thank you Tech4Energy

Glenn is an expert in the filed and explained our options well. He has also always been available for after installation questions and helping set up the different apps to be as efficient together as possible. Installation was efficient and easy with no problems and very courteous staff.

Tech for Energy were professional from the outset. The survey demonstrated how we could benefit from an additional 5 panels & a Tesla battery installed in the garage as well as improving the efficiency of the existing 9 panels. The work was completed in a thorough and very satisfactory manner, and on-time despite one very windy day. Very satisfied with the results. Our electricity consumption from the grid dropped 97% on the first full month (May 2024) of use.

Solar System Upgrade

Our recent solar upgrade to add extra panels and a Tesla battery to our system originally designed and installed by Techfor Energy a couple of years previously was once again a very professional job. From the initial assessment which took a number of hours, to the final commissioning, great care and attention to detail was evident from the whole team. The work was carried out over the period specified and exactly for the quoted cost. The Increased generation capacity and battery have allowed us to run an EV and power the house for free over the first month of use. We have exported more energy than we have used on sunny days. We are very pleased with the outcome. I chose Techfor Energy initially as they were a Which magazine trusted trader, Checkatrade listed and MCS certified.

Techfor's expert report helped me get my money back

Techfor Energy's technical director was brought in after I'd been swindled out of more than £3,500 by a fly-by-night company claiming to be solar power experts. Luckily I'd paid by credit card, and Which? had advised me that I had the right to compensation under Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974. The card supplier's Complaints Dept was defensive and dismissive, but the tone changed when I was eventually transferred, months later, to their Section 75 Dept. These people demanded an opinion from an independent expert, but they gave me a full refund immediately when they saw Techfor's authoritative report, which was detailed and realistic and said the whole thing had probably been a scam.

Another outstanding interaction with Tech for energy. They installed my solar system and a Tesla Powerwall at the end of last year which I am very pleased with. Glenn wanted to make sure that I was getting the maximum benefit from my system. He knows the energy market and the tech very well and took the time this month to follow up on my system and guide me through adjusting the settings on my battery to mine maximum value from the market. I now charge my battery at cheep rates when the battery has forecast dull weather the coming day and (the battery) leaves it to the sun if the forecast is for sun. Brilliant. thanks for taking the time Glenn.

I fitted my first solar and Tesla battery system back in 2018. I was sufficiently impressed with the survey, installation and after sales service and support that I received from Techfor Energy - I fitting a second system a year later at another property. The second system was at my home address and with the purchase of a fully electric car I achieve extra benefit when surplus energy produced goes to charging the car. Now that is what I call saving the planet. Now six years on from the first installation I am getting fast and helpful advise from the Techfor Energy team whenever I have a question. That type of aftercare service is hard to find these days.

Glenn and his team did a superb job. They designed and installed our solar panel system, complete with a Tesla Powerwall storage battery and a MyEnergi-'Eddi' hot water unit. We are with "Octopus" and are using their overnight reduced ("Intelligent") rate. We also have a MyEnergi "Zappi" car charger. We are saving very substantially on electricity. We are extremely pleased and would not hesitate to recommend TechFor Energy.

Glenn and his team did a great job designing, procuring and installing our solar PV system, complete with battery storage and hot water. We are now using only around 10% peak time electricity with the rest either direct from the solar panels or the cheaper overnight rate. We are very happy!
