From Cornwall's record sunshine to Dartmoor's off-grid farmhouses, the South West is Britain's natural solar country — and its rural grid makes battery storage more than a luxury.
The South West catches more sun than any other British region — Cornwall and south Devon top the national irradiance tables — and it shows in what we install here: productive arrays on farmhouse roofs, barns and bungalows, increasingly paired with batteries because the region's long rural power lines make outages more familiar than anyone would like. Backup-capable storage isn't an upsell in the South West; it's often the point.
The housing is Britain's most varied: cob and stone cottages, chalet bungalows along the retirement coast, Georgian streets in Bath's World Heritage core, and Bristol's terraces climbing their hills. Many rural homes are off the gas grid entirely, which makes the solar-battery combination especially valuable — displacing expensive oil, LPG and electric heating with energy from your own roof.

Rural South West homes think about energy differently: many are off the gas grid entirely, distances make EV range planning real, and a power cut can last. Our designs answer that context — solar sized for genuine self-sufficiency ambitions, batteries with backup circuits, and honest advice for listed cottages and thatch where the main roof isn't an option.
The region's towns and cities balance the picture: Bristol's green-minded terraces (served by their own dedicated page), Bath's heritage constraints, Exeter and Plymouth's practical suburbs, and Gloucester and Taunton's market-town homes — each surveyed on its own terms.
