Solar Panel Options
Solar PV Panel Options
We are happy to install any system of your choice. If you have a particular brand of solar panel, you specifically want to have as part of your system, just let us know. However to make things easier for you we have selected what we consider the best panels available for a variety of budgets and system needs. We have made this selection based upon:
Quality (the feedback from our fitters as to the robustness of the panels, as well as the manufacturers reputations and warranty lengths.)
Value (the highest ratios of performance related to price).
Aesthetics (how the panel look on your home is a major consideration for many clients, and we make sure our panels are as discrete, and stylish looking, as possible).
Company (the long-term stability and financial security of the manufacturer).

JA Solar 295W Mono Black Smart Module
JA Solar is one of the largest solar panel manufacturers in the world, and is a very reputable brand internationally.
Compared to traditional modules, the JA Percium panels have lower initial degradation, and higher performance, under both high temperature, and low irradiation conditions.
Technological innovation is essential to JA Solar’s position as a global leader in solar energy. It’s key to the quality and value of their products, and as an innovative industry front-runner.
The JA Solar 280-295W’s range’s excellent high wattage, means you can use less panels and achieve a high output. Ideal for domestic systems where roof space is limited, and the highest output possible is required, whilst at a great value price.
Available as smart modules, with integrated SolarEdge panel optimizers, they make a high performance SolarEdge system very affordable.

LG 360W Mono Neon R A5
The 360Wp LG Neon2 mono-crystalline photo-voltaic series comes with a robust and attractive design, combined with the highest efficiency.
The LG 360W are one of the very highest rated panels available. With its outstanding high efficiency, it enables more energy output than its conventional counterparts, when given the same amount of space. This makes the LG 360W the best choice, when trying to maximise the output from smaller roofs.
This leading manufacturer uses Cello technology, and replaces 3 busbars with 12 thin wires to enhance power output and reliability.
A truly high performing and high quality, advanced panel, from this world leading manufacturer.

LG 320W Mono Neon 2 Black A5
In the pursuit of greater aesthetics, black panels have become very popular with many clients. LG has now taken the all black to the next level, with the Neon 2 Black panel. It is perhaps the best looking panel on the market.
The 320W Neon 2 Black Monocrystalline module, is designed recognising the importance of aesthetics, as well as high performance, in construction.
Marking another step forward for LG’s range of modules, already know to have excellent build quality, performance, reliability and appearance. When installed in arrays, the Neon 2 Black offers a more uniform appearance. This enables the solar panel PV modules to integrate into new and existing buildings, without necessarily making the array a focal point.
This module continues the trend from LG, of producing state of the art, high performing, well made, good looking products.
Value
- 18.9% efficiency
- 275W – 310W rated power
- Monocrystalline cells
- Great low light performance
- Attractive all black panels
Trina Solar Honey+ 285W Mono all black
Trina Solar is one of the most reputable solar panel manufacturers in the world, known for producing some of the most robust and high quality panels available.
In a recent study of PV modules the Trina Solar modules ranked highest in reliable performance under real-world and low light conditions.
Great looking all black, and great value high quality Tier 1 panels.
Solar Panel Optimisers
- increase energy yields from your system by up to 25%
- increase the output from any panel and system
- reduce the effect of shading
- 25 year warranty
SolarEdge P300 Solar Panel Optimiser
SolarEdge power optimisers maximise energy from each panel, through constant tracking of Maximum Power Point per panel. Optimal efficiency is achieved by automatically maintaining a fixed string voltage. Performance can also be monitored via the SolarEdge monitoring portal.
Module mismatch occurs when modules in an array do not exhibit fully identical electrical properties, or when they are exposed to different environmental conditions. Module mismatch leads to a different maximum power point (MPP) per module. Sources of module-mismatch:
- Partial shading & uneven soiling causes different irradiance levels, on different modules.
- Temperature gradient – heat convection across the solar array, causes different temperature levels, on different modules.
- Manufacturing tolerance & uneven aging rate, cause the modules to perform at different MPP parameters. String systems lower the string’s output, to the level of the lowest performing module.
SolarEdge power optimizers perform MPP tracking for each module individually, and therefore extract the maximum energy from each module, regardless of other modules in the string.
