Solar-Assisted Heat Pumps
Our solar-assisted heat pumps combine thermodynamic panels with heat pump technology to provide efficient hot water heating. These systems capture ambient heat from air and sunlight to reduce reliance on grid electricity by up to 47%. Designed for Scottish weather conditions, they operate effectively even in cloudy conditions with 25-year guarantees on components.
Solar PV Systems
Photovoltaic systems convert daylight into electricity, cutting energy bills by up to 70%. Our installations work efficiently in Scottish weather with no requirement for south-facing roofs. Systems include optional battery storage and come with 30-year performance warranties.
Solar Battery Storage
Battery solutions store excess solar energy for use during peak hours or power outages. This technology increases energy independence by 30% and optimises savings from solar PV systems through intelligent load management.
Air Source Heat Pumps
Low-maintenance heating solutions that extract heat from ambient air to provide space heating and hot water. These systems reduce heating costs by up to 60% while maintaining efficiency at temperatures as low as -20C.
Infrared Heating
Energy-efficient heating systems using infrared technology to warm objects and people directly rather than air. Ideal for hard-to-heat spaces, these panels operate silently with precise temperature control capabilities.

.Just had a SAHP installed. Fitted to our existing hot water cylinder. We are still learning how it works for us but been great. Installers were really helpful and thorough. This is our first renewable energy purchase.

I had the infra-red heating panels installed in my cafe. I'm very happy with the performance and running costs. Several of my customers have had similar installations after experiencing mine.

A very swift and efficient installation. The new heating system is wonderful, effective, easily controllable and hopefully value for money. It certainly makes the winter more pleasant.what a difference!

The guys who came to install the panels where great, arrived on time and super efficient. After they left, apart from the new panels you wouldn't have known they had been in the flat and where really happy to explain anything we asked. Left our place super tidy. Really flexible on where we wanted the panels, some wall mounted and some ceiling mounted. SES where great though the whole process, really impressed with the quality of service all round.

So helpful. After years of using gas heaters to heat my cheer and dance gym I wanted to find something more cost effective and safe. I wish I had done this sooner. Could not recommend enough. Excellent service
