The development in recent years of solar battery storage systems has meant a huge step in helping us to become more energy independent and in turn reducing our carbon footprints. By storing excess self-generated solar power it is possible to become considerably less reliant on the grid and depending on the amount of storage you have it may even be possible to sell any surplus back to the grid during peak times. Many people agree that one of the most useful features of battery storage is the blackout facility or emergency back-up, meaning that during a power outage emergency circuits and in some cases even the whole property can be backed-up resulting in a truly off grid experience.
At Evolve Solar Energy we can help you find the best solution for your battery storage requirements. Because we are approved installers for some of the biggest names in battery storage technology on the market we can be sure to offer you the best advice to suit your individual storage needs. We are MCS accredited meaning that once your installation has been completed you can apply to receive the 'Smart Export Guarantee' or 'SEG' payments from your chosen supplier.
Did you know that you can still take advantage of the many benefits of having a storage battery even if your roof is not suitable for solar panels? Most utility companies now offer time-of-use electricity tariffs such as economy 7 and the new smart tariffs like Octopus Agile. Meaning you can now charge your battery overnight at a more favourable rate which you can use in the home later when electricity is at peak demand and therefore more expensive. Our storage batteries have a scheduling facility allowing them to be programmed to charge or discharge at the optimum time and can be even integrated to work with your smart tariff or home assistant software.
Our projects usually start with an email or phone call requesting a quotation. One of our team will be in touch as soon as possible to discuss your requirements and arrange for a survey to be carried out. We require some information at this point to create a quote folder, such as name address and contact details. We will never share customer information and any details we take are treated in complete confidence at all times.
To allow us to offer the best battery storage solution possible we will arrange to visit you at a convenient time to carry out a survey of your property in order to provide a comprehensive quotation. Our aim is that you are completely satisfied with our products and services. That’s why we must ensure that we have all the relevant information to allow us to design the most effective system to suit your needs. We will discuss your requirements and suggest a suitable location for the storage battery to be installed, we will also be happy to answer any additional questions that you might have.
Once we have gathered all of the information we need, we can begin working on your quote. Besides the actual cost of the work, our quotations will also include information about the proposed system to help give you an idea of the many benefits of investing in a storage battery.
After confirming that you wish to proceed with the installation, we will provide a proposal pack. This document outlines the work in more detail and contains our standard terms and conditions. Once you have approved and signed the documents we may request a deposit to secure the materials and will allow a cooling off period of 14 days in case you decide to change your mind. Following the cooling off period, we will arrange a suitable date for the installation work to take place.
A few days before the installation, we will contact you to advise when the equipment will be delivered ready for the installation work to commence. We try to ensure that our work causes you minimal disruption, we will discuss the installation process again and agree a time for the power to be switched off before we begin work. Once the equipment is installed our electricians will carry out the testing and commissioning of the system and explain how to set up charging schedules via the software app. Before we leave we will ensure that the work area is left clean and tidy and will assist in answering any questions you may have. We pride ourselves on our efficient procedures and solutions, but we continually strive for improvement in order to deliver results more effectively.
Following completion of our installation work, we will put together a handover pack. This will contain all of the information required to use your new battery storage system, the electrical inspection and test certificates and details of our insurance backed guarantee (IBG) and product warranties. We are always on hand to provide any further assistance in the future should an issue arise.
