What solar installers cover

Installers in the Aylesbury area fit roof-mounted and ground-mounted solar PV for homes, businesses and farms, size the system to your roof and usage, and connect it to your consumer unit. Most also supply and fit battery storage, replace ageing inverters, add monitoring so you can see generation and export, and carry out cleaning, repairs and bird proofing on existing arrays. Many now combine solar with EV charger and heat pump work as part of a wider home energy upgrade.

MCS certification and consumer codes

Look for an MCS certified installer. MCS is the Microgeneration Certification Scheme, the standard for small-scale renewables, and certified firms usually also sign up to a consumer code such as RECC. MCS certification matters because your energy supplier will normally only pay you for exported electricity under the Smart Export Guarantee if the system was installed by an MCS certified company. Ask to see the certificate and confirm the system will be registered with MCS on completion.

Battery storage and exporting power

A battery stores electricity your panels generate during the day so you can use it in the evening, which cuts how much you draw from the grid. Power you do not use can be sold back through the Smart Export Guarantee, with rates set by each supplier. New systems are notified to your network operator under the G98 or G99 process. Domestic solar and battery installations are currently zero-rated for VAT in England until 31 March 2027, which a good installer will reflect in the quote.

What it typically costs

Solar is usually priced by system size in kilowatts peak, with batteries and EV chargers quoted as extras. Costs depend on roof access, the number of panels, scaffolding and whether your consumer unit needs upgrading. Ask for a written quote with an estimated annual generation figure produced to the MCS standard, the inverter and panel warranties, and the expected payback period. If your project also needs wiring work, our electricians listings can help, and you can pair an install with our EV charger installers.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an MCS certified installer?

For most homes, yes. Energy suppliers will normally only pay you for exported electricity under the Smart Export Guarantee if your system was installed by an MCS certified company. MCS certification also signals that the installer follows the recognised standard for small-scale renewables, so it is worth confirming before you book.

Is battery storage worth adding?

A battery lets you use more of the electricity your panels generate rather than exporting it cheaply, which can increase savings, especially if you use a lot of power in the evening. Whether it pays back within its warranty depends on your usage and the price you are quoted, so ask the installer to model your case before deciding.

How long does an installation take?

A typical domestic solar installation is often completed in one to two days once scaffolding is up, with battery and EV charger work adding time. The installer should handle the network notification and register the system with MCS afterwards, then hand over the paperwork you need to apply for export payments.

Can the same firm fit an EV charger or heat pump?

Many can. A growing number of installers combine solar, battery storage, EV charging and heat pumps as a single home energy upgrade. Check each listing, or browse our EV charger installers and heat pump installers separately.
