SOLAR & BATTERY STORAGE
Power your property with clean, renewable energy and take control of your electricity costs. Our solar PV and battery storage systems are designed to maximise efficiency, reduce grid reliance, and future-proof your home or business. Whether you want to lower bills, cut carbon emissions, or gain energy independence, Armour Electrical delivers tailored solutions using the latest technology — installed by fully qualified experts.
Solar panels (also called solar PV) capture sunlight and convert it into electricity through an inverter, usually installed on your roof. During the day, this powers your lights, appliances, and devices. Any excess electricity can be stored in a battery system for use later—such as in the evening or during power outages—helping you use less from the grid and save on energy bills.
It’s a smart, clean, and cost-effective way to take control of your energy use.

FAQs?
Do I need planning permission for solar panels or battery storage?
This depends on the positioning of the solar panels and if they sit to the front or rear of the property. If the solar panels are applied to the front elevation it is likely that planning permission will be required. Also, for certain properties — such as listed buildings or installations in conservation areas —
permission may be needed.
At Armour Electrical, we handle all planning and applications in-house with our partner company, so you don’t need to worry.
Can you design the system for me?
Yes — we provide a full in-house design service. We assess your property, energy usage, and roof space to create a custom solar and battery system that suits your needs and budget.
How much can I save on my energy bills?
Savings depend on your usage, system size, and battery capacity, but most homeowners see a significant drop in their electricity costs — especially when battery storage is included. We’ll show you estimated savings during the design stage.
What happens if it’s cloudy or at night?
Solar panels still generate energy on cloudy days, though at a reduced rate. At night, you can use stored energy from your battery or draw from the grid as normal. The goal is to reduce, not completely eliminate, your reliance on the grid.
Can I add a battery later?
Absolutely. If you're not ready to install a battery upfront, we can design your system to be battery-ready — so you can easily add one in the future without extra hassle.
