Solar Panel Installers You Can Trust

We have had solar panels, a battery and an EV charger installed by E-Verve Energy. We are really happy with the system now that it’s in place. Through the quotation process and preparation for the installation Jordan was very knowledgeable and patient with our questions. The team on the day were very professional and worked very hard to get it all finished in the day. We had some teething troubles with firmware and data feeds but Si and the team were great, liaising with MyEnergi and returning to site until it was sorted out. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
Helen Murray
Quick, very pleasant, good communication and a neat looking solar installation job. Well done!!

They were absolutely fantastic. Not only did they install our EV charging point, but also found a serious fault with our fuse board which they fixed for us as well. Highly recommend.
Guy Levine
Delighted! The two engineers from E-Verve Energy were punctual polite and the standard of the installation was excellent. Being an engineer myself it was a great to see two young men taking pride in their work.
Rudi Incutti
Highly recommend, excellent job, nice lads that came to fit it. Clean, tidy and talked me through what they were going to do and all went to plan.
Paul Williams
The process for arranging the installation was very efficient compared to months of unsuccessful communications with a local electrician who let us down. The engineer arrived on time, was very polite and tidy and did a great job. We just need the electric car to arrive now so that we can test it all out.
Helen Murray
The service was exceptional from start to finish. The booking was hassle free and the customer service was very attentive and professional. Robbie, the engineer was technically very skilled and the job is of the highest quality. I would recommend without reservation.
Tracey Greenough

Would highly recommend.

If you are considering solar panel installation in Manchester to select the best panels for you and your home you need to carefully evaluate several factors including your roof’s condition, your energy needs, and your installation type.

Roof Type

Your roof plays a pivotal role in determining which solar panels will work best. Before choosing which panels are right for your Solar PV in Manchester it is important to consider the following:

  • Roof Shading
  • Roof Size
  • Roof Type
  • Roof Orientation

Our guide to choosing the best solar panels for your home will discuss the above in detail alternatively our Solar PV Manchester team will be happy to help you on 01925 873155.

Solar panels generate direct current (DC) electricity when exposed to sunlight. However, your home appliances run on alternating current (AC) electricity. A solar panel inverter converts the DC electricity into AC, making it usable for your home.

A solar panel inverter may seem like a small part of your solar system, but they have a huge impact on its performance. When comparing solar panel inverters, take into account the following:

  • Your Roof’s Shape and Sunlight Exposure: Shaded or multiple roof angles? Go for micro inverters or optimisers.
  • Budget: If cost is a concern, string inverters are the most economical.
  • Future Plans: Want battery storage? Hybrid inverters are the way to go.
  • Current Set Up: Already have solar panels? AC coupled or battery inverters are your go to for retro-fitting batteries
  • Your Energy Goals: Determine what’s most important—cost savings, scalability, or energy independence.

Will my Solar PV Manchester need Optimisers?

Choosing the right inverter for your solar panel installation in Manchester can feel overwhelming. Check out our detailed guide Solar Panel Inverters: Choosing the Right One for Your Home which discusses the main types of solar inverters, their pros and cons, and the scenarios where each type is most beneficial. Alternatively our team of solar panel installers Manchester will be happy to help you on 01925 873155.

Solar panel optimisers are an additional technology that works with inverters to increase the efficiency of your system. They are installed on each panel, ensuring maximum energy extraction, even if part of the array is shaded or dirty. Optimisers are often used in systems that rely on string inverters.

How They Work:

Optimisers adjust the DC voltage from each panel, ensuring the string inverter receives optimal input power. They enhance performance and provide monitoring capabilities for each panel. Optimisers boost energy production in partially shaded systems and allows panel-level monitoring.
