HSB Renewable Energy is a local, independent solar panel installer based in Deeside, covering all of North Wales and the North West of England. We install domestic solar PV systems from £4,320 and solar-plus-battery packages from £8,500, with 0% VAT on all residential installations.
Our MCS-accredited engineers handle everything from design to installation and aftercare. We fit high-efficiency solar panels, battery storage systems, heat pumps, and electric vehicle charging points for homes and businesses across North Wales. We are a Which? Trusted Trader and Octopus Energy Trusted Partner.
A domestic solar panel installation in North Wales typically costs between £4,320 and £10,000 fully installed. Adding battery storage brings the total to £8,000-£14,000. All residential solar PV and battery installations qualify for 0% VAT until at least March 2027.
These prices are based on our actual installation costs for homes and businesses across North Wales, not national averages.
| System Size | Panels | Annual Output | Price (Installed) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2-3kW | 5-7 | 2,000-2,600kWh | From £4,320 |
| 4kW | 8-10 | 3,400kWh | £5,500-£7,000 |
| 5.7kW + 9kWh battery | 12 x Aiko Gen3 475W | 4,800kWh | From £8,500 |
| 6-8kW | 13-17 | 5,100-6,800kWh | £8,000-£10,000 |
Output figures are based on a south-facing roof at 30-35 degrees in North Wales. East-west split roofs produce around 15-20% less but work well with battery storage because energy production is spread more evenly across the day.

Solar panels for your home or business generate clean electricity from daylight, reducing your energy bills and carbon footprint. We design and install high-efficiency solar PV systems tailored to your property, energy usage, and budget.
Domestic Solar PV →Battery storage systems capture excess solar energy produced during the day and release it when you need it most. This maximises your energy independence, lowers your energy bills further, and helps you get the most from your solar PV system.
Battery Storage →Air source heat pump systems extract natural warmth from the outdoor air and transfer it into your heating and hot water. Combined with solar panels and battery storage, they form a complete, sustainable energy solution for your home.
Heat Pumps →We install high-efficiency monocrystalline solar panels from Aiko, JA Solar, and Canadian Solar, paired with trusted battery storage and inverter systems from leading manufacturers.
Suits a typical 3-4 bedroom home. Hybrid inverter included. 25-30 year panel warranty. 10-12 year battery and inverter warranty. Tier 1 rated equipment only.
Yes. Solar panels generate electricity from daylight, not direct sunshine. North Wales receives 1,100-1,300 hours of sunshine per year - more than enough for solar PV to deliver real energy savings.
Modern high-efficiency solar panels continue producing energy on cloudy and overcast days. The cooler North Wales climate can actually benefit performance - solar cells lose efficiency at higher temperatures, so panels here frequently perform closer to their rated output than systems in warmer parts of the UK.
Yes. Through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), UK energy suppliers pay you for every unit of excess electricity exported back to the national grid.
Pairing solar with battery storage gives you control over your energy usage. Store energy during the day, power your home in the evening, and only export what you do not need. Some tariffs, such as Octopus Flux, pay higher rates during peak hours, making a solar battery particularly valuable for maximising your energy savings.
Most domestic solar panel installations in North Wales fall under permitted development and do not require planning permission. This applies to roof-mounted solar PV systems that do not protrude more than 200mm beyond the roof surface and do not extend above the highest part of the roof (excluding the chimney).
For commercial solar panel installations, planning requirements vary depending on the building type and system size. We advise on this during the free survey and can manage the planning application process for you.
A typical domestic solar panel installation in North Wales takes 1 day once a date is booked. The full process from first contact to a complete, working solar PV system runs in 4 stages.
We visit your property to assess roof orientation, pitch angle, shading, and structural suitability. Based on your energy usage and budget, we design a tailor-made solar PV system. Alternatively, use our free online quote for an initial estimate.
Our engineers fit mounting rails, solar panels, the inverter, and battery storage (if included). All electrical work is carried out to BS 7671 wiring regulations. We route cables neatly, keep your system running smoothly from day one, and clean up after ourselves.
We test the complete solar energy system, commission the inverter, set up your monitoring app, and walk you through how everything works. We issue all electrical certificates and register the installation with MCS on the same day. Once the installation is complete, you are ready to start generating your own clean electricity.
We remain your point of contact for any questions. Solar panels need very little maintenance - an annual check and occasional clean is usually all that is required. If anything needs attention, we are a local team in Deeside and can respond quickly.
Yes. We regularly retrofit battery storage to existing solar panel systems across North Wales. Adding a solar battery to an older system increases self-consumption from around 40% to 70-80%, letting you lower your energy bills significantly.
If your existing solar panels were installed more than 5-6 years ago, you may also benefit from upgrading to a modern hybrid inverter. This allows the battery and panels to be managed together as a single solar energy system, giving you better control over your energy usage and improved efficiency.
Good news: The 0% VAT rate now applies to standalone battery storage installations as well as combined solar-plus-battery systems, making it more affordable than ever to invest in solar battery storage.
Based on current electricity prices (27.44p/kWh under the Ofgem price cap, Q1 2026) and the 0% VAT rate, solar panels in North Wales typically pay for themselves in 7-10 years. The remaining 20+ years of the system's lifespan deliver free electricity and ongoing energy savings.
Reduce Your Energy Bills
A 4kW solar PV system can cut household electricity costs by up to 50%. With battery storage, energy savings increase to 70-80%.
Earn From Excess Solar Energy
The Smart Export Guarantee pays you for surplus electricity exported back to the national grid, turning your solar panels into an income-generating asset.
Energy Independence
Generate and store your own sustainable energy. Reduce carbon emissions and protect yourself from volatile energy prices and future rate increases.
Increase Property Value
Homes with solar PV systems are increasingly attractive to buyers, often achieving higher sale prices and improved EPC ratings.
Reduce Your Carbon Footprint
A typical 4kW system offsets around 1.5 tonnes of CO2 per year. Solar energy is one of the most effective ways to reduce carbon emissions at home.
0% VAT Until 2027
The UK government has removed VAT on residential solar panel and battery installations, reducing the upfront cost by hundreds of pounds.
Pairing solar panels with an air source heat pump creates a fully renewable energy system for your home, covering both electricity and heating. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers up to £7,500 towards heat pump installation for eligible UK homeowners.
