Accredited where it counts
HCE is a member of the HIES Consumer Code, registered with NAPIT and MCS certified — three schemes that stand behind your installation with vetting, standards and consumer protection, before and after we leave. What these mean for you
Independently reviewed
We're proud of the feedback our customers leave — and we would rather you read it straight from the source than take our word for it. Every review sits on our public Trustpilot profile, under the reviewer's own name.
Lower your energy bills, reduce reliance on the grid, and make better use of the energy your home generates every day.
The case for solar is not complicated. Your roof gets daylight all year round — panels turn that daylight into electricity, and every unit you use at home is a unit you no longer buy from your supplier. The technology is mature, quiet and proven, and it keeps working in typical British weather. Panels generate on cloudy days too, just at a reduced output compared to direct sunlight.
Solar rarely works alone these days, either. Pair the panels with a battery and your daytime generation is still there after dark; add an EV charger and the car on your driveway can run partly on power from your own roof. That is why we design the three together — panels, storage and charging sized as one system around how your household actually uses power, rather than bolted on one piece at a time.
Not sure whether your home suits solar? That is exactly what the first conversation is for. Roof orientation, shading, roof condition and how much power you use during daylight hours all change the answer — and if solar is not right for your property, we will say so rather than sell you a system that underdelivers. New to all of this? Our plain-English guides are a good place to start.

Five ways to take control of your home's energy, designed around how you actually live. We keep the list short on purpose: we would rather do five things properly than ten things adequately.
Turn your roof into a long-term source of cheaper power, with professionally installed solar panels designed to reduce electricity costs and improve your home's energy efficiency. Every system is sized from your real usage, not a one-size template.
Residential solar installation
Store excess solar energy and manage your home's power more effectively with reliable battery storage and inverter systems built around your usage. A battery lets you use your daytime generation in the evening, when homes need power most.
Battery storage
Enjoy fast, convenient charging at home with professionally installed EV charging systems compatible with a wide range of electric vehicles. Charge overnight on your own driveway and skip the public-charger queue.
Home EV charger installationStay comfortable in every season with professionally installed air conditioning systems that cool your home in summer and heat it in the cooler months. Modern units are reversible air-to-air heat pumps, and they pair naturally with solar panels.
Home air conditioning installationReplace your boiler with an air source heat pump that heats your home and your hot water from the outside air — and pairs naturally with solar panels and battery storage.

The photographs on this site are not from a stock library. They are HCE installations, photographed on the job — and if you look closely, you can read the name on the equipment.
The battery cabinets in our gallery are EnSmart SolarAll units on a real installation, photographed exactly as we left them: cabinets level, cabling tidy, everything labelled. The wall-mounted EV charger is an EnSmart unit too, fitted where it is actually used — on the wall of a customer's home, not in a showroom.
Look at the pictures the way a surveyor would. Are the cabinets straight and the cable runs clipped, sleeved and out of the weather? Does the equipment carry a name you can research for yourself? Those details separate an installation that quietly gets on with its job from one that generates callbacks — and they are exactly the details we want you to judge us on.
We show our own work because it is the fairest way to judge an installer. Anyone can publish a glossy render; finished installations are harder to fake. EnSmart is a product range we install and know well — if you want the detail on what the kit is and how it fits together, we have put it on one page.
Three steps, clearly explained — and you stay in control at every one of them.
We start with a simple conversation to understand your home, energy usage, and what you want to achieve. No pressure, just clear advice.
Our team assesses your property and designs a system tailored to your home — sized around your roof, your energy usage and your long-term savings.
Once approved, our certified installers carry out the full installation with minimal disruption and complete attention to detail. Most residential installations are completed within 1–2 days.
Between step two and step three sits the part we treat as non-negotiable: your decision, made in your own time. The quote you receive is free, itemised line by line and carries no obligation — you see exactly what you are paying for, and nobody from HCE will lean on you while you think it over.
Step one costs nothing and commits you to nothing.

Straight answers to the questions homeowners ask us most — the honest version, not the brochure version. Longer answers, and more of them, live on our FAQs page.
Savings vary depending on your energy usage and system size, but most homeowners significantly reduce their electricity bills and protect themselves from rising energy costs.
Yes. Solar panels still generate electricity in cloudy conditions, just at a reduced output compared to direct sunlight.
In most cases, solar panel installations fall under permitted development and do not require planning permission. We'll confirm this during your survey.
Excess energy can be stored in a battery (if installed) or exported back to the grid for potential financial returns.
Most residential solar installations are completed within 1–2 days, depending on the system size and property type.
