Utilise more of your solar generation by installing Battery storage.

We have seen Solar energy self-consumption rise from around 30-40% to around 70-80% by installing storage. This will further reduce energy bills and as a result, your payback period for the Solar PV system will also reduce.

Battery storage is particularly useful and most valuable economically if you have Solar, but are out of the home most of the day, where solar generation is at its highest, by storing the energy for use for when you return home.

There are many ways of increasing your self-consumption percentage just by thinking ‘smart’. Utilise the sun, by using your appliances such as your washing machine and dishwasher during the daytime whilst the sun is out.

Another way of utilising solar generation is to install a solar energy diverter, to heat up your immersion tank for free hot water.

With a Solar PV & Battery storage system installed, you have the ability to sell your energy stored in your battery back to the grid.

The most beneficial way of using your Solar pv & Battery storage system is to self-consume the energy you create, but if you happen to have excess energy stored in your battery, why not sell it back to the grid during times of high demand, you will find that energy companies are offering a very good export rate during the hours of 4pm-7pm for example.

By utilising new tariffs such as Octopus Agile for example, you will be able to use your battery storage system to import electricity during times of low demand and export in times of high demand.

Remember, you don’t need a Solar PV system to utilise the import/export abilities of a Battery storage system.

Battery storage allows you to make the most of electricity that you generate by storing it, so that you can use the energy when you actually need it.

For example, you could store more of the solar power that you generate so you can use it when the sun has gone down, instead of drawing on grid electricity from your energy supplier.

Battery storage also enables you to have the ability to keep the power on when you have a power loss to the building. Storage systems can be set-up to act as an emergency power supply, where we can back up the whole home or ‘essential’ loads such as safety circuits (intruder alarm, CCTV, smoke alarms), lighting, heating and low load socket circuits.

Fantastic team all round! Very professional and have great advice regarding my solar enquiry. Had 3 jobs personally done by Gallagher Electrical and all top notch. Passed their details to some friends and not one complaint. Can’t rate highly enough.

I have received first class service from Gallagher Electrical, Richard has been excellent taking his time and have to say patience's due to Givengery telling him different things but after phone calls the 2nd Givengery battery was up and running correctly. If you are considering having solar panels and battery fitted l would certainly recommend Richard from Gallagher Electrical

Really happy with my PV + battery installation from Gallagher Electrical. ☀️ 🔋 Richard and the team provided great service - their on-site survey and system design/location suggestions were a breath of fresh air and notably different to the faceless conversations and phone camera surveys of other companies I spoke to. When it came to installation, the team were efficient, tidy and courteous - I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them if you’re thinking of a solar installation. 😊

Thank you very much for all the hard work you and your employees have done for me and my family. All the work from start to finish was done in a prime and proper fashion. From day one you have been very reliable and efficient. You have installed solar panels and gave a much needed rework to our roof all whilst giving a friendly service. After only a few weeks, we can already see an improvement in the amount of money we are saving using your system. Thank you very much for your service, we will definitely be recommending you to our friends.

Had Great Service from Gallagher Electrical on my Solar PV & Battery Installation. From initial contact through to installation and certification Richard and John Gallagher and there Roofing and scaffolding team have been exemplary. I was concerned about how the panels would look and they organised my chimney removal and sourced some skirt covers so the panels are aesthetically symmetrical and integrated on the roof. The battery installation also very neat & Tidy and all certification and liaison with National Grid undertaken without any dramas. Would definitely recommend the company.

Gallagher’s are a great company with a friendly approach. We have had various electrical works including new EV chargers installed, which have all been completed in an extremely efficient and professional manner. Would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Gallagher's.

Frequently asked questions

Please find some questions we’ve answered.

Should you have any further questions, we will be happy to answer them.

How many batteries would I need?

The number of batteries needed is dependent on your specific load profile. Bigger is not always better!

We carry out site specific load profiling, which will give us an idea of your peak usage including how much energy you’re using and at what times. We do this by typically looking at your last 3 months electricity bills.

More often than not, we recommend that you install a smaller battery system initially, and then if you find that you could do with extra storage, we can expand the system at a later stage.

All our battery storage systems are modular, so you can add additional batteries with minimal fuss.

Are there any grants available?

Unfortunately, there isn’t any grants available for Battery storage alone, but the UK government announced they have reduced the VAT threshold for standalone Battery storage systems down to the same level as Solar PV which is 0% VAT.

Do I need Solar Panels to install Battery storage?

No you don’t need Solar Panels to enjoy the benefits from having a Battery storage system, especially when there are now agile energy tariffs from companies like Octopus energy, you can charge up on cheaper electricity overnight at off peak periods and then sell back to the grid for a profit during high demand periods.
