Fabulous Feedback

TestimonialsPosted:  11 June 2024 @ 13:14 BSTAuthor:  TB Electrics

Thank You and Feedback
Dear Terry

I have been so impressed by the installation of my domestic solar panel power generation plant that I thought I would share my experience and feedback with you in case it’s of interest.

I’d si...

Solar Edge - The Benefits

News & EventsPosted:  24 May 2024 @ 17:53 BSTAuthor:  TB Electrics

What makes Solar Edge different


At TB Electrics we have installed Solar Edge products since we began installing solar panels back in 2011. We found that their products were superb and had already stood the test of time - one of the major differences is their groundbreaking power optimisation technology. Unlike traditional solar pv systems with a string inverter, that are limited by the performance of the weakest solar panel in the array, Solar Edge's power optimisers ensure that each panel operates at its maximum potential at all times, whether there is cloud coverage on one panel, shade from chimney, dirt or a bir...

Solar and Battery Qualifications
As the world moves towards more sustainable energy solutions, the adoption of solar power and battery storage systems has surged. These technologies promise not only to reduce our carbon footprint but also to provide a reliable and cost-effective energy source. However, the installation of these systems is not a simple task.
