Discover the endless possibilities of solar energy for your home with Wow Energy.
Solar panels capture the sun’s energy via solar PV (photovoltaic) cells, turning solar irradiation into DC electricity. Direct sunlight is not required for this, allowing homes across the UK to generate their own renewable electricity.
The energy from the solar cells is then converted into usable electricity by a Solar inverter by transforming the DC electricity from the panels into useable AC electricity for your house. Your home will then use the green energy you generate for daily use, keeping you, your family & friends powered by sunlight.
Adding a battery storage system will allow you to store any excess Solar electricity generated during the day for when you need it most. Charging your battery with Solar electricity provides flexibility and enables you to use it later in the day or at night, providing more self-sufficiency from the grid and saving you more money. Adding battery storage to your Solar panel system can increase your energy independence from the electricity grid to upwards of 70% or even more.
Your home and energy use are unique to you, that’s why our solutions are tailored to suit your needs.
Our current solutions are some of the most cost effective, reliable solutions around and can be used to help start your journey to energy independence.
Solar energy is the cheapest and fastest growing renewable energy solution, allowing more independence from the Electricity grid, more control over how and when your energy is used, all whilst positively impacting the environment.
Solar panel systems typically generate a saving of between 60% and 80% per year* on your energy bills, and with the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) you can also earn money back for exporting excess solar energy generated by your solar panel system into the grid.

We provide coverage across the following counties for Domestic Solar Panel installation : Cheshire, Derbyshire, Staffordshire and Greater Manchester, with installations in Alderley Edge, Altrincham, Congleton, Hale, Knutsford, Lymm, Macclesfield, Poynton, Prestbury, Stockport and Wilmslow.
We operate a nationwide installation service for commercial, industrial and farming projects.
Solar panels are strong and durable, and our solar panels come with a twenty-five year performance guarantee. However, as long as they receive regular checks and maintenance, they can last more than thirty years. Many of the other components we use also have a long guarantee period, such as a 25 year guarantee on our Enphase microinverters and 15 years the Enphase battery storage system.
Solar panels don’t have any moving parts and are largely maintenance-free. Over time though, weathering and other environmental factors such as dead leaves and traffic pollution could begin to affect your solar panels, so it’s a good idea to have your solar panels checked every few years, just to ensure that they are working as efficiently as possible.
If you do experience any issues, we provide fast and efficient maintenance services for homes and commercial properties throughout the Manchester and surrounding counties, from cleaning to pest control, as well as error diagnostics.
In most cases, getting solar panels installed does not require an application for planning permission, as it is included within your Permitted Development Rights. Certain homes and businesses, however, will require planning permission. If you live in a listed building, or within a Conservation Area, then we are always available to provide any guidance or assistance you might need with planning advice and planning permission before the project begins.
You certainly can – Solar panel systems will also work well on east or west facing rooves and even on shallow pitched north elevations. Solar systems can generate around 70% of a similar roof facing south at 10 degrees. This means properties with a large energy bill and a big north-facing roof can still take advantage of free, clean solar energy.
Photovoltaic cells don’t just work in direct sunlight – they continue to work in overcast weather conditions, and even shaded areas. We will always customise a solar system to work with your property, and by using Enphase micro inverters or Solar Edge power optimisers, we can make sure that your renewable energy source is running as efficiently as possible.
This used to be the case, but thanks to the new range of affordable solar battery storage systems, you will be able to store up energy during daylight hours for use through the night. Our range of intelligent lithium-ion batteries allow you to maximise your energy generation, and use it outside of daylight hours.
A home battery storage solution will mean that you don’t need to rely on energy from the grid when the sun is no longer shining.
As well as being paid for the energy generated by your solar panels, you can also reduce your energy bills by up to 80%. Over time, electricity rates will only continue growing, and a renewable energy source means that you will be able to avoid an annual energy price rise of around 10% a year, giving you control and freedom to be energy independent.
