Some of the main benefits of solar and battery storage include:
- Drastically decrease electricity bills saving you money
- Low carbon footprint due to a decrease in gas emissions
- Increased property value, making your home more appealing to future potential buyers
- Energy independence which you won’t be affected by the chance of an electricity blackout
- Battery storage means you don’t have to rely on constant sunshine
- Solar and battery storage is low-maintenance
Solar Battery Storage Installation
Pairing your panels with battery storage allows you to use more of the electricity you generate. During sunny periods, your solar photovoltaic panels may create excess energy, which can be stored and used later. This means that on cloudy days or at night, you can still power your property without relying solely on the national grid.
RCJ Electrical designs and installs advanced battery storage systems for homes and businesses across Newport. With reliable inverters and efficient storage technology, your system will maximise the value of your renewable electricity.
We also offer ongoing maintenance to keep your installation in excellent condition. Our engineers are qualified to service both solar panels and battery storage systems, ensuring your investment continues to perform for many years.

FAQs
Solar panels are well known to increase the overall value of homes and commercial properties after installation. This is because you are saving money on energy costs each year. Once the system has achieved a return on investment, you are effectively generating free electricity and making the property more environmentally friendly and efficient in the long run. Solar panels provide a return on investment over time and an immediate increase in property value, making them a great investment.
Solar panels use sunlight to generate clean electricity. Using photovoltaic (PV) technology, the cells in the panels absorb sunlight, generating an electric charge as electrons are excited. These then flow in the circuit to generate electricity, which is then passed to the inverter. The inverter can either convert direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) to power appliances or store DC electricity in a solar battery for later use. DC is stored in batteries, whereas the inverter converts it to AC to power appliances and other electrical devices.
Yes, you can get paid for excess energy in Newport.
With an MCS-certified system and a compatible meter, you can export surplus electricity through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) and receive payment from eligible suppliers.
We can guide you through this setup. Just call us on 01633 270 285 to discuss SEG and tariffs.
Solar panels are best installed on south-facing roofs as this is the optimal orientation for efficiency. They can be installed on east- and west-facing roofs, with north-facing roofs being the least efficient. If your roof is damaged or in need of repair, you will need to organise repairs, as the panels are heavy and could cause severe damage or a roof collapse if the roof isn’t strong enough to support them. Your roof can be repaired alongside the installation of your panels. Solar panels can also be installed on flat roofs if you don’t have any obstructions, and on the ground if you want more panels to generate electricity.
Pricing depends on your roof size, energy usage and whether you add battery storage.
RCJ Electrical provides fixed quotations, so you know exactly what you are paying for and the savings you can expect.

In most cases, you won’t need planning permission for solar panels in Newport as they are classed as permitted development. That being said, planning permission may be required if your property is listed or in a conservation area. It’s always best to double-check with your local council on whether planning permission is required for your home. Our team can also advise and help confirm whether planning approval is needed for your Newport property.

Solar batteries store the DC electricity generated by your solar panels for later use. In winter and at night, you can charge the battery directly from the grid using cheaper tariffs. In Newport, you aren’t going to be able to meet your electricity requirements all year round. Hence, a solar battery system ensures that you are getting cheaper electricity at all times when you aren’t able to generate electricity from your solar panels. However, you are still benefiting from cheaper electricity rates. Solar batteries can be installed with emergency power systems (EPS), which provide electricity from battery storage during power outages.
Yes! We can install batteries with your PV system or retrofit them to an existing array.
Storage lets you use more of your self-generated power at night and on cloudy days, helping reduce your bill and increase energy independence.
