As energy prices continue to affect households, more residents in Hertfordshire are looking for ways to manage their energy consumption. The Solar Together Hertfordshire scheme, in partnership with Hertfordshire County Council, provides a cost-effective solution to take back control over energy costs.

This group-buying initiative brings together homeowners from across the county. Participants can secure high-quality solar installations at an average savings of 10-25% compared to regular market prices. Trusted installers bid for the work, ensuring competitive pricing and reliable and professional service.

A Better Way to Go Solar

Switching to solar energy can seem daunting, but Solar Together Hertfordshire breaks it down into an easy, step-by-step process:

1.           Register for Free: Sign up with no obligation at solartogether.co.uk before 4th April 2025.

2.           Auction Process: Vetted installers compete in an auction to offer the best price for the group.

3.           Personalised Offer: Receive a bespoke recommendation based on your home and energy needs.

4.           Make Your Decision: Review your offer and decide whether to proceed.

The scheme’s comprehensive personal offer includes everything needed for a solar installation, from the panels and inverters to warranties. Optional upgrades such as battery storage, which allows you to store surplus energy for later use, and EV chargers are also available.

The Benefits of Solar

For Hertfordshire homeowners, the benefits of going solar are clear. Generating your own electricity can reduce your reliance on the grid, offering protection against rising energy prices. It also allows you to export unused energy back to the grid, potentially earning extra income.

Mr Peter, a resident of Hemel Hempstead, participated in a recent scheme and has reaped the rewards:

“Electricity usage has already dropped between 25 and 30 percent, even in the short time we’ve had the panels. We’re getting about a pound a day back from my utility supplier with the smart export guarantee.”

Mr Peter was also positive about the installation process, he said: “I can’t recommend them highly enough. Their communications were brilliant, and they did exactly what they said they would. We’re very pleased with the panels. They’ve been neat, and tidy, and everything has been working as promised.”

Take the First Step Toward Solar Energy

With energy independence and the chance to lower bills and even earn money through export tariffs, the scheme is an attractive option for homeowners looking to take control of their energy future.
