Derek's Journey to lower bills and cleaner energy with solar

“We have been very pleased with it — we have already recommended Greenscape.”

The Challenge:

Derek had been considering solar for a while before a Solar Together Cambridgeshire leaflet prompted him to get in touch. Keen to reduce energy costs and lower his environmental impact, his main challenge had simply been finding a reputable company — the assurance of the ST scheme gave him the confidence to move forward.

The Solution:

Derek's home was fitted with a 9.6kWh Pylon battery system alongside 17 panels across two arrays, positioned 90 degrees apart to maximise the energy curve throughout the day. Despite scaffolding needing to go up and down in a single day due to a public footpath, the team handled it without issue. Any early technical problems were resolved quickly, and with intentions to disconnect from gas entirely, they had an Air Source Heat Pump installed a month later.

The Results:

From March to October, Derek's home runs entirely on solar and stored energy. In 2024, the system generated 5,172kWh, exporting 54% back to the grid. The original 12-year payback was calculated at just 17p per unit, meaning the real-world ROI is now expected considerably sooner.

Derek’s Advice:

Put in as much as you can afford, for both solar and batteries.

Had my Air Con installed today.. Could not fault the two installers who attended. . Arrived nice and early, took a look around outside and indoors no hesitation in starting work and confirming where I wanted the appliance. Shoes off each time they entered house and completed the tidy up after themselves. Remote and operation of A/C explained to me.. Good work, keep it up.

I've just had solar panels, battery and EV charger installed by Mark and Luke. They arrived a little early, did the job as quietly as possible with no fuss, and have finished much earlier than I'd expected. Mark then explained what's what, which I think I'll remember. Couldn't expect more. Scaffolding subcontractor was similarly efficient putting the scaffolding up. The back office and survey staff have been friendly and efficient too. It has been good to be able to visit the showroom office in Ipswich.

Michaela, dealt with my finance query in a professional, efficient manner, and placated my fears that the progress on my solar system would be paused until the return of the surveyor from holiday. Good customer care. Thank you

I have been very impressed with the service I received from Greenscape. The initial survey was very professionally done by Andrew and I was pleased that he convinced me not to have more panels than necessary. The team that installed the battery and inverter were excellent and very pleasant to deal with. The system is up and running and there have been no complications. I thoroughly recommend Greenscape.

I arranged to have solar panels and a battery installed by Greenscape via OVO Energy. From start to finish, the service has been excellent. From the survey, to the panel installation and battery installation, every team member has been professional and very friendly. The after sales have kept in contact to make sure everything has gone smoothly. Couldn't fault Greenscape.
