It’s free to register with Solar Together Suffolk and receive an installation quote - there is no obligation to go ahead with the installation.
The project helps homeowners feel confident that they are paying the right price for a high-quality installation from qualified installers, and increases their independence from the national grid.
The scheme not only offers solar panels, but also battery storage and EV chargepoints. Customers who have already invested in solar panels can also get quotes for battery storage, to get more from the renewable energy they generate.
Councillor Philip Faircloth-Mutton, Suffolk County Council’s cabinet member for Environment, Communities and Equality, said:
“Solar Together Suffolk has installed an impressive 11.7 MW of solar panels across Suffolk homes.
“Many Suffolk customers have told us that the main reason for installing solar panels was for the benefit of the climate and environment, followed by saving money on bills and reducing their reliance on the grid.
“Homes still account for nearly a quarter of all Suffolk’s CO2 emissions. But we are helping homeowners and landlords reduce these through initiatives like Solar Together Suffolk, and the Suffolk Climate Emergency Plan.
“We want to help residents make their homes and lifestyles as sustainable and energy efficient as possible – whether through improving insulation, how homes are heated, electric vehicle infrastructure, or solar panels and batteries.”
Marie-Louise Abretti, Solar Together UK Business Manager, said:
“With energy prices continuing to fluctuate, residents of Suffolk are looking for opportunities to reduce their carbon emissions, save on energy bills, and increase their independence from the grid.
“The Solar Together Suffolk group-buying scheme offers a straightforward way to make an informed decision and to access a competitive offer from a trusted, vetted provider.”
