The time it takes to install solar panels depends on the size of your system and whether you include battery storage. A standard installation without batteries usually takes one day, while adding batteries extends it to one or two days.
With Consumer Energy Solutions, you get a seamless solar experience. We handle everything – administration, installation, and exceptional aftercare support. Our skilled, insured, and rigorously vetted installers prioritise your home and guide you through the entire solar process.
Forget that myth! Solar panels absolutely work in low light. Our AC system gives you a major advantage - your panels generate energy for longer periods, even when the sun isn't blazing. Standard DC systems sometimes struggle in these conditions because their inverters have higher startup energy needs.
