This meant discussions with the DNO about how and what could be done and applications for the connection agreements, which we un...

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...

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.

Britain ready to raise the roof with commercial solar pv potential! Thousands of commercial buildings in the UK could be used to revolutionise our solar pv industry. One of them could be yours .....

We asked Alan from Vespertec to give us his thoughts about the 149 panel Solar PV system that we installed back in Nov 2022 for him and his feedback about the system and TB Electrics is fabulous and its great to be able to share this with you

We designed a system that was expected to gener...
