Real solar case studies from local customers

See how Simple Solar systems perform in real homes across Devon, from roof layouts and battery storage to installation challenges, savings and long-term results.

A Waterloo Street, Plymouth solar and battery case study

A compact Plymouth solar PV and battery installation with 9 panels and a 5kW battery, designed around an awkward roof and higher electricity demand from a front-mounted AC unit.

The team fitted 3 panels across 3 different roof elevations using Fastensol A-Slates with black rail for a clean, high-quality finish. Installation took 2 days, with scaffolding removed by the end of the week.

A Lee Mill solar and battery case study

A large Lee Mill solar PV and battery installation that helped reduce the customer’s electricity bill from around £300 per month to around £60.

The system includes panels across three roof elevations, including a flat roof, a 10kW Fox inverter, two 11kW Fox batteries, outdoor battery and inverter setup, emergency backup, and was installed in just two days.

A Chudleigh off-grid solar and battery case study

An off-grid Chudleigh home fitted with an 8kW solar system, 12 roof-mounted panels and two indoor batteries.

A Devon solar installation case study

See how Simple Solar installed a 20-panel solar PV system with a 9kW inverter and 11kW battery for a Devon home, generating around 10,000kWh per year and saving the customer around £2,000 annually.

The project was completed during Covid with remote communication throughout, while carefully working around the customer’s beautiful garden and flowerbeds.
