Your Questions, Answered.

  • Can I install solar panels if I live in a flat or apartment?

    Yes! Balcony solar panels are designed for renters and flat-owners. They’re compact, lightweight, and don’t need roof access or structural changes.

  • How much power can balcony solar panels generate in the UK?

    Most balcony panels produce 200–800W. This can offset up to 30% of your daily energy use—great for powering lights, laptops, TV, dishwashers, washing machines, Wi-Fi routers, and charging small appliances.. Just don't put the kettle on too many times.

  • Do I need permission from my landlord or building management?

    No. Freestanding or railing-mounted panels or batteries do not need permission as they are designed to be portable, but just double check your lease or tenancy agreement.

  • Can I connect balcony solar panels & battery directly to my home socket?

    Yes, our plug-in systems (plug & play) are designed to feed electricity into your home via a standard socket using a micro-inverter, reducing your need to draw power from the grid. Plus our batteries also come with a XXXXXXXXXX

  • Is it easy to install and use?

    Yes! Our systems are plug-and-play—no electrician needed, no costly installation. Mount the panel securely, plug into a socket or battery, plug battery into scocket, and you’re generating your own power. Congratulations.

  • Will I save money on my energy bills?

    Yes, especially if you’re home during the day. You can reduce your electricity use by 20–35%, depending on your setup and usage.

  • Can I take the system with me if I move?

    Absolutely. These systems are portable and designed to move with you—ideal for renters or frequent movers.

  • Do balcony solar panels work in the UK climate?

    Yes! Even in cloudy or overcast conditions, panels still generate power—just at lower efficiency. South-facing balconies work best, but east/west-facing setups can still produce meaningful savings.
