Solar & Energy

Solar and energy systems, designed properly. TopBytes provides independent solar, battery-storage, and EV-charging consultancy for homes and businesses, from the first feasibility conversation through to a full system design and specification you can hand to an installer with confidence. We don't sell panels, so the advice you get is genuinely in your interest.

What we do

Advisory & feasibility: an honest assessment of what solar and storage can realistically do for your property or site, including expected generation, savings, payback, and the pitfalls to avoid before you commit a penny.

System design: sizing and layout of solar arrays, battery storage, inverters, and EV charging tailored to your usage, roof or site constraints, and budget, designed to perform rather than just to fit.

Specification: a clear, installer-ready specification of components, ratings, and configuration, so you can compare quotes on a like-for-like basis and know exactly what you're buying.

Tariff & optimisation: getting the most from your system after it's installed, with smart tariff selection (including Octopus tariffs), battery scheduling, and monitoring, often integrated with Home Assistant for full visibility and automation.

Who we work with

Residential: homeowners wanting solar, battery, and EV charging that actually saves money and works the way they expect. See our real-world Solar/Battery and EV project for the numbers.

Commercial: businesses and sites looking to cut energy costs, add resilience, and make a credible, well-specified investment case.
