Property Developers
For developers, solar is cheapest and most effective when it's designed in, not bolted on — meeting Building Regulations, lifting EPCs, and adding value for occupiers and buyers.
For developers and housebuilders, solar is cheapest and most effective designed in from the start, rather than retrofitted to satisfy a planning condition late in the day. Done well, it meets tightening Building Regulations, protects EPC ratings, and adds tangible value for occupiers and buyers.
We advise at design stage on the right specification, coordinate solar with roof design, DNO connection and metering, and make sure the hand-over documentation is in order — so compliance, value and saleability are all protected without carrying unnecessary cost.

When should solar be considered?
At design stage. Designing it in is cheaper and more effective than retrofitting, and it protects EPC ratings and compliance headroom.
Does solar help with Building Regulations?
On-site renewables are one of the most cost-effective ways to meet Part L targets and prepare for the direction of the Future Homes Standard — we advise on the right specification.
