Why solar here
Solihull has one of the highest solar-adoption rates in the West Midlands, and the logic is the same as everywhere with high grid prices: use your own free daytime power, export the surplus under the Smart Export Guarantee, and add a battery to cover the evening. The premium detached stock around Knowle and Dorridge has the roof space to make a well-sized array genuinely worthwhile. Savings estimates are based on typical usage and current energy prices, and actual savings vary.
Across B90 to B93, from Shirley and Dorridge to Knowle, Bentley Heath and Balsall Common, most homes qualify for solar under permitted development. We have fitted a steady run of Tesla Powerwall 3 systems here as battery interest has grown, and we flag any conservation-area or listed considerations on the older properties before quoting firm.
Solar is only part of what we do in Solihull. The same team fits battery storage, Tesla Powerwall included, with or without panels, installs home EV chargers that can run off your own solar, and handles the wider electrical work that comes with it, from consumer-unit upgrades to full rewires and landlord EICR certificates. One local crew covers the lot across B90 to B93, with a single point of contact from quote to commissioning.
FAQs
