Solar PV Installation
Solar PV Installation & Solar Battery Storage Solutions in the Lothians & Edinburgh by Knox Power. Domestic & Commercial Solar PV installations.
As the demand for renewable energy solutions continues to grow, we are dedicated to helping our clients harness the power of the sun to reduce energy bills and minimise their carbon footprint. Our team specialises in designing and installing Solar PV systems and battery storage solutions for both domestic and commercial clients, providing you with clean, reliable energy that supports a more sustainable future.
At Knox Power, quality and compliance are at the forefront of everything we do. We are proud to hold MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) accreditation, which is a mark of excellence in the UK’s renewable energy sector. This accreditation demonstrates that our installations meet the highest standards in terms of quality, safety, and performance. When you choose us for your Solar PV and battery storage needs, you can trust that you are working with a team that adheres to the best industry practices, ensuring your system is efficient, reliable, and built to last.
One of the key benefits of installing a Solar PV system with us is the ability to secure Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) payments. The SEG scheme allows you to earn money by exporting excess electricity generated by your Solar PV system back to the grid. Our team will ensure that your system is correctly certified and that you have all the necessary documentation to benefit from these payments. This not only enhances the return on your investment but also contributes to a more resilient and sustainable energy system.
AC coupled battery storage system
Don’t have the appropriate roof space for solar? We have the solution for you
An AC-coupled battery storage system can be used effectively without solar panels by taking advantage of cheaper electricity rates during off-peak hours, such as overnight. Here’s how it works:
What is an AC-Coupled Battery Storage System?
An AC-coupled battery storage system is a setup where the battery is connected to the grid through an AC (alternating current) connection. The battery system has its own inverter that converts DC (direct current) from the battery to AC for use in your home or to send back to the grid.
Key Points of the OZEV Grant
Example Setup:
- Battery Storage System: Install an AC-coupled battery storage system with an inverter.
- Smart Meter: Ensure you have a smart meter to track usage and rate periods.
- Energy Management System (EMS): If available, use an EMS to optimize charging and discharging based on the electricity rates.
Considerations:
- Battery Size: The size of your battery should match your energy needs and the duration of peak periods.
- Inverter Capacity: Ensure the inverter can handle your home’s power demands during peak times.
- Efficiency Losses: Be aware that there are some efficiency losses when charging and discharging the battery, so factor this into your cost savings calculation.
