I chose Solidarity Solar after getting a lot of quotes, they were the best. The team that put my solar panels up, were very professional courteous after all my questions. The system was put up in a week and is performing beyond my expectations. Also the aftersales support is excellent

Thank you to Jake and his team for all their help and advice.Very professional and friendly, I would highly recommend this company.

Great service and advice from these guys. Highly recommend. In the end I didn’t need a replacement inverter but was given good, sound advice. I will go back to them when I need to. Genuine and knowledgeable.

Our project was not at all straightforward, but Solidarity were keen from the very beginning to accommodate our needs, and deliver something exceptional. Between the customers (there were initially 23 of us) and Solidarity, we worked out the best way forward, a feat made all the more difficult by the distance between us and Solidarity's base (Cornwall).This project was out of the comfort zone of both parties, but Jake and his team rose to the challenge, and were focussed on providing us an exceptional service.The market for solar and battery installations is becoming increasingly competitive, so given my experience with Solidarity, I will gladly recommend others to use their services and expertise.Our project was to employ a single company to supply and install PV + storage systems to multiple residential properties on a terraced street in Swindon. Out of 23 interested parties, Solidarity went on to install 10 properties with PV or PV + storage.

Very quick response rate and professional. Jake and his team were more than helpful and put themselves out to get it all done, we had a roof problem which they sorted rapidly in order to get the panels up and working. The whole setup is simple and very efficient. The best investment we have made! It is the logical way forward and we would Highly recommend Solidarity Solar, be it for small, medium or large energy production installations. Thank you again Jake and the team. We are thrilled with our system.

We had our system fitted by Jake and his team in February 23. We had several quotes but chose to go with Jake and SS because of their overall approach. We were given clear and understandable information, there was no hard sell. The install was completed very efficiently . The fitters were brilliant . The inverter and battery's fitted exactly where we wanted them .The system has now been working for several months and the results have exceed our expectations.I would thoroughly recommend Solidarity Solar .

Jake and the team installed 14 Solar panels on 2 roofs at my property with an invertor and 5.3 kw battery in the garage to a very high standard keeping us all informed throughout the installation. I chose Solidarity Solar because of them being a local firm and was not disappointed

Wanted Solar panels installed on my house, had to put up with so many sales calls and hard sell until I contacted Jake at Solidarity solar. He was really proffesional, and there was no hard sell. Just great advice on what would suit me best. Then Paul and the guys came and fitted them they where so proffesional and tidy, and there to answer all your questions. Could not recomend them enough.

We had our solar panels and battery installed earlier this month, and have been delighted with Solidarity Solar throughout the process. Our initial quote was far more competitive than quotes we had from other nearby suppliers (for the same specification), and they were clearly knowledgeable and passionate about their trade when coming to perform an initial assessment of our property.They worked and communicated well with the building company who were already working on our house, meaning we had little to coordinate ourselves. When it came to fitting, the electricians were courteous, friendly and professional, and highly responsive to our suggestions and preferences around positioning the wiring and inverter.We're delighted with our new set-up and already feel we've made a brilliant investment. We found Solidarity Solar a genuine pleasure to work with and can't recommend them highly enough.

All credit to Jake and team. We now have a brilliant system on a complex roof and it is performing beyond all expectations. Communication was excellent throughout.

Spoke with their team (Jake) about a new Solar and battery install, after speaking with so many different providers I found speaking with Solidarity a breath of fresh air, no pushy sales chat just open honest advice and recommendations. They made it easy to understand the options, how it all works and brilliant suggestions on products and super fair pricing too. I honestly think this may be the best Solar provider in the UK and would deal with them anyday.

I rarely write reviews but Solidarity Solar deserve real credit for their professionalism and service.I obtained several quotes from other solar companies. For almost exactly the same specification Ben’s quote was all but £2500 less than the next best. Some of the large national suppliers were, in hindsight, clearly vastly inflated.I talked through the spec’ with Ben, he provided a detailed quote within a day and a likely timetable (it was March in Cornwall!) and I agreed to pay the deposit. I did so in part because I was very keen to use a local company, but also because I was immediately impressed by their total lack of, “hard-sell” and technical expertise.Apart from a couple of days lost to rain, the installation could not have been better. The scaffolding went up within a week and the panel-fitters arrived the following day. When they lifted the roof-tiles they found several areas of felt and some lead flashing which needed repair. I agreed to cover the cost but, when I came to pay the final bill, Ben did not charge any extra.The fitters and electrician were just great. They were all very professional and good-humoured, even when I changed my mind about the location of the inverter and batteries – causing them more work. They arrived and left exactly when they said they would, did their very best to keep disruption to a minimum and did not leave any mess at all.I am delighted with the quality of their work and with the system they have installed. It is going to save us a lot of money over time, reduce our carbon footprint and allows me to boast that we get pretty much free fuel for our car. The return on our investment is significantly higher than any interest the capital may have earned and I estimate break-even in six or seven years, depending on the price of electricity.I cannot recommend Solidarity Solar highly enough.Five Stars.

Are Solar Panels a good investment?....... YES!

No Risk – None, Zero Risk, totally safe!
Guaranteed returns which you can see come back to you on average within 5-8 years for a domestic and as little as 2 years for a business.
Just like stocks and shares, patience is key. After the payback period has ended the panels will go on to generate for years to come and hopefully way beyond their warrantied life. You will have to change the inverter and battery after 10-15 years but after that amount of time the system has already saved thousands and It will do so again for another 10-15 years after.
Instant savings – See the savings and Returns start as soon as the installation is complete.

With so many different websites and forums claiming good and bad things about investments into solar, It can be extremely confusing.

We have put together an FAQ with loads of the common questions answered. The team here spend day in and day out doing everything solar so we are extremely clued up and knowledgeable, we aren’t salespeople just really into renewables and making something of our little company.

Trees planted

Did you know that we plant trees with every solar install?

We believe that reforestation plays a major role in reversing the effects of climate change. That’s why we support worldwide forest regeneration projects through the good people at Ecologi. They plant native trees to restore vanishing ecosystems, improve soil health and create green spaces for local people. If you book an install with us, we’ll plant trees in your name.
