HOW IT WORKS

Your journey with Simple Solar begins with a hassle-free, no-obligation property survey. Whether you're a homeowner or a business owner, our expert surveyors are ready to evaluate your site for solar suitability. During this initial visit, we assess everything from roof space and orientation to shade analysis and energy usage patterns.

Our team uses advanced digital tools, including aerial imaging and on-site diagnostics, to gather precise data. This step ensures your system design will be both technically feasible and economically beneficial. Best of all, it costs you nothing and takes less than an hour in most cases. We believe in keeping things simple, which is why there's zero pressure, zero sales talk, and absolutely no commitment required.

Once your survey is complete, we move quickly to present a tailored solar package that aligns with your energy goals and budget. You’ll receive a detailed proposal that outlines potential savings, expected energy output, and return on investment over 25+ years.

Our consultants will guide you through a curated selection of premium solar panels, batteries, and inverters, including our most popular SUNPOWER, known for their unmatched efficiency and durability. You’ll also explore options to spread the cost, along with other payment benefits such as 0% VAT schemes, green mortgages, and SEG income projections.

Whether you’re looking for energy independence, long-term savings, or enhanced property value, we’ve got a system that fits. And with transparent pricing and RECC-compliant quotes, there are no hidden costs, just honest, informed advice.

Ready to go solar? This step confirms your commitment with a secure, insured deposit of 25%, in full compliance with the Renewable Energy Consumer Code (RECC). At this stage, your project comes to life.

We generate your digital contract, file all required documentation, and begin managing the DNO (Distribution Network Operator) application process on your behalf. This includes liaising with local authorities and submitting the necessary G98/G99 grid connection forms.

Our admin team ensures your project remains on track, providing regular updates so you never feel in the dark. With your system now secured and paperwork in motion, you're well on your way to solar independence.

Now it’s time to get your property installation-ready. We coordinate the logistics—ordering your solar equipment, scheduling your installation date, and arranging any scaffolding or access solutions required for a safe and seamless install.

Our operations team works efficiently to minimise disruption to your home or business. You'll receive clear communication about timeframes, delivery details, and access requirements. We also ensure that your scaffolding is erected shortly before the installation date to avoid unnecessary inconvenience.

Everything we do at this stage is designed to ensure a flawless installation experience that’s tidy, timely, and well-organised.

Installation day is here! Our accredited installers arrive on time, equipped with high-quality solar panels, inverters, and storage units. We follow rigorous safety protocols and workmanship standards to ensure the job is done right.

Typically completed in one to two days, the installation process is clean, courteous, and professional. Once your system is in place, we connect and configure your monitoring software, giving you real-time visibility into your energy generation and savings via a mobile app.

At this point, we’ll request your 35% advance payment as per RECC guidelines. You now own the solar equipment outright, and your journey to energy independence is officially under way.

With your system now live, our compliance team finalises your certification process. We generate and deliver your MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) certificate, a vital document that qualifies you for SEG (Smart Export Guarantee) payments and proves your system meets UK standards.

We also handle any necessary DNO commissioning documents and compile a comprehensive digital handover pack. This includes your product warranties, user guides, performance data, and maintenance recommendations.

We make it easy to access everything you need to manage and understand your new solar system, with ongoing support just a phone call away.

At this final financial milestone, we collect the remaining 40% payment. Now fully commissioned, your system begins working for you day and night. We set up your SEG account so you can start earning payments for surplus electricity exported back to the grid.

Our team ensures your energy supplier is provided with the correct documentation and registration forms, so you start receiving payments without delay. This passive income stream can significantly offset your energy bills while adding value to your property.

We monitor your system remotely for performance issues and provide customer support to ensure you maximise your solar investment over time.

We don’t just install solar, we build lasting relationships. After installation, we’ll check in with you to ensure everything is running smoothly. Your feedback helps us improve and provides valuable insight to future customers.
