Britain’s energy system is undergoing a major transformation. As the country increases its reliance on renewable electricity, electrifies transport and heating and responds to changing patterns of energy consumption, one challenge is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore: how can electricity be stored and delivered when it is needed most? Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are […]

Solar panels have become an increasingly popular way for UK homeowners to generate renewable electricity and reduce their reliance on energy from the grid. Traditionally, solar panels are installed above an existing roof using mounting rails. However, integrated solar roofing offers an alternative approach by incorporating solar technology directly into the roof design. An integrated […]

Large-scale solar power has become an increasingly important part of the UK’s transition towards a cleaner, more secure energy system. As solar capacity continues to grow, so too has the debate around how solar farms use land, their impact on agriculture and whether they can support biodiversity. Some of the criticism surrounding large-scale solar suggests […]

The energy performance of new homes is changing significantly. As the UK moves towards a lower-carbon energy system, renewable electricity, efficient heating and better-performing building fabric are becoming increasingly important considerations for housebuilders, developers and homeowners. In England, the Future Homes Standard introduces new requirements designed to ensure that newly constructed homes are more energy […]

The UK solar energy market is entering a new phase. Rising energy costs, improved solar technology and growing awareness of renewable energy are encouraging more homeowners to consider solar panels and battery storage as part of their home energy strategy. The summer of 2026 has further highlighted the growing role of solar power in the […]

The UK’s Contracts for Difference (CfD) scheme is entering another important stage with the introduction of Allocation Round 8 (AR8). The latest changes affect how renewable energy projects compete for contracts, how grid connection readiness is assessed and how the government manages the allocation process. For developers of solar farms, onshore wind, offshore wind and […]

As more UK homeowners and businesses look for ways to generate, store and use renewable energy more efficiently, solar PV systems are becoming an increasingly popular choice. However, the technology behind a solar installation can make a significant difference to how well the system performs. Two technologies that are attracting growing interest are solar microinverters […]

Solar power has become one of the most talked-about ways to reduce household energy costs in the UK. Traditionally, installing solar panels has meant having a professionally designed system mounted on the roof, connected to the home’s electrical system and registered with the relevant authorities. Now, a simpler option is gaining attention: plug-in solar panels. […]

As homeowners across the UK look for more efficient and lower-carbon ways to heat their properties, ground source heat pumps (GSHPs) are becoming an increasingly attractive alternative to conventional heating systems. Unlike traditional boilers, which generate heat by burning fuel, a ground source heat pump uses naturally stored heat from the ground and upgrades it […]

As commercial and industrial solar installations become more sophisticated, managing generation, battery storage and grid interaction through separate systems can quickly become a challenge. When each part of an energy system relies on a different monitoring platform, even a relatively small configuration issue can take time to identify and resolve. A metering problem, for example, […]
