Excellent service, very helpful and informative. Guys are friendly, polite and professional. They reconfigured my existing panels after having an extension. Would highly recommend.

So I've waited a full year to add this review because I wanted to review the system fitted as well as the service.
Got in touch with these guys and the response was impressive. I asked them to look at one side of the roof & then both to determine the projected performance and ROI. After this Gary and his business partner came out and took a look at the house.
We discussed the possible installation locations and determined that inside the garage roof would be the most convenient for the inverter and battery. We also decided to fit panels to both sides of the roof.
They then provided me with a quotation, which I thought was reasonable.
The system we went for was the Give-energy AIO.
We paid the deposit and booked an installation date. The team came and were extremely quick and efficient.
Sadly, as with 99% of houses, there's no capacity for solar systems so the routing of the cables had to be along the front of the house in order to connect to the mains.
There were a couple of areas I wasn't happy with in relation to the cable routing. I told the guys and we came to an agreement on what was the best solution I was happy with.
They completed the installation. I sent over all the required paperwork for grid connection and we were up and running. First class team of guys and very responsive with technical support which I've used 3 times over the last year.
Now to the system.
When you first get it, it's highly likely you'll be obsessed with monitoring it on the app.
The system also has an online portal which you can configure to suit your own requirements. There's quite a bit to learn about it if you want to or you can get the guys at NPES or Give Energy to configure it to the most suitable settings for you personally.
There are a few groups on facebook with very knowledgeable people, and they keep you alerted when there are saving sessions planned etc.
If you have a battery then the saving sessions are a great way to earn money from your system.
However, what you must appreciate is that these systems are software driven and are not a toy. I've seen so many people on the forums pissing about with the settings then find there's an issue with the system. They then start complaining about the system itself.
I've had 3 issues in a year, two of them associated with the USB wireless adaptor for the inverter, losing connection to my router. The third issue was also something trivial.
There are regular software updates so keep an eye on what's going on with you system through the app or the portal, but really just learn how to discharge and charge your batteries to capitalise on the returns and leave the rest to its own devices.
Having the system installed has been the best thing we've done. It's reduced our electricity bill significantly even though we've had a poor year in terms of sunlight. We've been smart with the technology and capitalised on the offers available from the electricity company and the grid.
Charging your battery at 14.30 pence per KWh (current price) during the night is a significant saving during the winter months. If you're like me, a light sleeper you can also run your most expensive appliances at this time.
You can also sell your stored energy into the grid at peak times or during a grid saving session for which you can sometimes get anywhere from £1.50 - £3.00 per KWh if you discharge your battery back into the grid.

In November 2024, Paul Cunningham said about NPES Solar Ltd
NPES installed a PV array, inverter and battery system for us. The quality of their work and attention to detail was excellent on what was an awkward install (3 strings on 3 different roofs). Their advice was honest and never 'pushy'. Infact they advised us against certain aspects of our installation even though it will have made them money. I never like spending money, but if you want a professional install with great support and advice, it's worth paying a bit extra. We would not hesitate to recommend this company or indeed use them in the future for any extentions to our Solar generation plant.

In March 2025, Luis Carless said about NPES Solar Ltd
NPES Solar installed our 8.2Kw solar PV array and 16KWh Sigenergy battery. Overall the team was excellent from start to finish, providing lots of helpful expertise and completing the install to a very high standard. The price agreed was very fair in comparison to the other quotes I received, and I would not hesitate in recommending them to anyone looking for solar and battery.

what a fantastic company , they came out gave me an excellent quote, they did all the paper work for the dno and my energy supplier, they came fitted all the panels on day 1, second day wired it all up, before i had the solar my electric bill was just over £200.00 a month i use alot of electric, i was expecting a 50% cut, after signing up on a export tariff the electric company owe me money, how fantastic is that, plus i have swapped gas fires to electric and saved on the gas bill, its a no brainer, i understand it wont be this good in the winter months, but the savings i am making now is fantastic, i owe it all to NPES, excellent work force from the office girls to the installers

In May 2025, Chris F said about NPES Solar Ltd
This year we decide to install a solar panel system at our property. We looked at 5 companies including E.ON. Quotes ranged in price from the extremely cheap to ridiculously expensive. After speaking with Octopus, they advised us to speak with three of their preferred installers; NPES being one of them.
Out of the 5 quotes 3 were telephone assessments and two offered site visits. The first company who attended appeared very professional, however, was more like a ‘Hard sell’ exercise. Jon and Gary from NEPS attended our property and the experience was so much better; professional, informative and thorough.
We were offered a number of different solutions to the installation and after a few phone calls and additional site visits decided to install more panels than we had initially considered at a very reasonable price, we decided to use NPES.
The whole experience with NPES, including contact with; Jon and Gary, Sam and Natalie, the scaffolding team, and the Roofing team was excellent. We were told in detail exactly what was to take place, given realistic timeframes and detailed explanations at every stage.
The installation went extremely well, even to the extent that Jon’s team stayed late into the evening to complete the install. Everyone who worked on the install were extremely polite, friendly, clean and tidy in the way they went about their business.
We have contacted NPES on a number of occasions since the install, to discuss technical issues and navigation around the equipment, Jon and Gary have continued to assist and advise without hesitation.
We are incredibly happy with the solar panels and equipment installed, we would definitely recommend NPES and would say that we made the right choice in using Jon’s team, thank you

Fantastic company that delivered exactly what was needed for a solar installation. I had used another company on a previous premises which was good this this NPES solar were more superior.
Would recommend, and we opted for ground mounted panels as the property is listed in a conservation area.
