High-quality, expertly installed solar battery storage systems for residential and commercial properties.
Installing a solar battery system maximises the efficiency of your solar panels by storing excess energy for later use, reducing reliance on the grid. You also have options of integrated ‘back up’ solutions that provide uninterrupted power supply in case of grid failure.
We offer a range of battery storage solutions for both domestic and commercial uses. We can assist you in choosing the best battery system for your needs and budget, ensure a professional installation and provide ongoing support, advice and guidance on how to get the most out of your system.

With decades of experience designing and installing solar PV systems and battery storage solutions, Genren strives for excellence at every step of the process.
From start to finish Genren exceeded our expectations. They answered all of our questions, designed a system that was ideal for our property, and were very tidy when installing our ‘in roof’ solar panels. They kept us informed throughout the whole process and we highly recommend their services to anyone thinking of installing solar on their roof.
Even after only 8 months we’ve significantly reduced our energy bills and we couldn’t be happier.
Find answers to frequently asked questions about the services offered by Genren.
A solar battery stores excess electricity generated by your solar panels during the day for use at night or during periods of low sunlight. This allows you to maximize the use of your solar energy, reducing reliance on the grid and lowering your energy bills.
Yes, installing a solar battery can be worthwhile in the UK. Despite the variable climate, solar panels generate electricity year-round. A battery enables you to store surplus energy, increasing self-consumption and providing backup power during outages.
The cost varies depending on capacity, brand, and installation complexity but typically ranges from £3,000 to £8,000.
Yes, most existing solar PV systems can be retrofitted with a solar battery. Compatibility depends on your current setup, so a professional assessment is recommended to ensure seamless integration.
Savings depend on your energy usage, battery capacity, and electricity rates. By storing and using your own solar energy, you can significantly reduce your electricity bills—sometimes by up to 50% or more.
Solar batteries typically last between 10 to 15 years. The lifespan depends on the type of battery, usage patterns, and environmental conditions.
The most common types are:
Lithium-ion batteries: High efficiency, longer lifespan, and low maintenance.
Lead-acid batteries: Cheaper upfront but shorter lifespan and lower efficiency.
Generally, no. Installing a solar battery usually falls under permitted development. However, if your property is listed or in a conservation area, you should check with your local council.
Going completely off-grid is possible in the UK. The challenge comes in the winter months with shorter daylight hours and high energy demands. A higher battery capacity will be needed to take your property 100% ‘off grid’ in these months. While a solar battery increases energy independence, most households remain connected to the grid as a backup.
Solar batteries are relatively compact and can be wall-mounted indoors or outdoors. Sizes vary, but many are similar to a small/medium sized suitcase.
Yes, when installed by qualified professionals, solar batteries are safe. They come with safety features like thermal management systems to prevent overheating.
Most standard solar batteries won’t provide power during a power cut unless they’re configured with backup capabilities. If this is a requirement then we can advise on what manufacturers and models offer this feature.
Capacity depends on your energy consumption and how much surplus energy your solar panels produce. Our design engineers can analyse your needs to recommend an appropriate size.
Solar batteries require minimal maintenance. Regular inspections by a professional are advisable to ensure optimal performance and safety.
Absolutely. Businesses can reduce operational costs, enhance energy security, and demonstrate commitment to sustainability by installing solar batteries.
