Installation of a solar panel system for a park home

Company

Challenges

Traditionally, park homes haven’t benefited from solar energy due to limitations of roof space and high installation costs. Additionally, park home residents often receive electricity through the park owner, who may not offer tiered rates, hindering the return on investment (ROI) for solar panels for park homes.

Review

After a very pushy local solar…

After a very pushy local solar installation company, I had seen NxtGenEnergyLimited on Facebook. Did the “due diligence” and finally got in touch with Bobby Barnes. Was initially surprised that he wasn’t concerned about having a site visit (he was aware several had been before). Had specific requirements set down by our site owner (and me). Black panels, Big battery, enclosure for the inverter & battery units. Nothing fazed him, within a few hours he had calculated our needs and what could be fitted, came back with a quote that was acceptable to both parties (yes, some haggling and changes to quote).

3 weeks of discussions to get our DNO (?) number, not NxtGen’s fault, and we had a date.

Scaffolding up on Saturday on our bungalow (health and safety says so) took 2hrs 15mins front and back done. Installation took place Wednesday and Thursday that week, scaffolding down on the Saturday (just over an hour). Scaffolders were quick and considerate of our very small cul-de-sac, everything cleared up quick.

The two installers were meticulous, tidy and worked well together. Was not rushed and all my minor questions and “picky” install requirements were taken on board and done to my satisfaction. Only the software updates for the battery and hybrid inverter delayed the install by an hour or two, but they didn’t leave until after we proved system was fully functional and I understood the monitoring app on my (and now my wife’s) phones.
