The system
What goes intoan Energon system
Three parts, chosen to suit your site rather than whatever we happen to have in the van. We size systems in kW of power, not panel counts.
Smart inverters
The brain of the system. We install a range of leading inverters (SolaX, Sungrow, Fronius and Sigenergy) matched to your property, so it runs efficiently and you can track it from your phone.
Battery storage
Store your daytime solar to use at night, or keep the lights on when the grid drops. As a Tesla Powerwall Certified Installer we fit Tesla Powerwall, Sigenergy, SolaX and PylonTech.
