  Super helpful and friendly team, we felt looked after the whole way through. We've not got a "standard" roof either, but the team came up with a plan and sorted us out on time and in budget. Very happy with the setup.

  We were recommended Glo by a good friend. Our property is over 100 years old and although it's been rewired in the past it wasn't up to modern day standards. We now are glad to recommended Charlie and Storm for a fantastic job done here in Paignton. Very professional job and work is second to none.. thanks guys 5*

  As someone who has been wanting solar PV for a long time and been in the industry for around 10 yrs, I was very pleased to find Glo Renewables. Their knowledge and customer service was excellent throughout our 6.8 kWp solar PV and smart charger installation. And their pricing was very competitive. I would thoroughly recommend them as an installer and I have already suggested to members of my family.

  I've had a great experience with Storm and Charlie from the outset. In our initial discussions, Storm showed great enthusiasm and a deep knowledge of and passion for his field, which was the factor that decided me in favour of Glo over similarly-priced competitors. Subsequent meetings strengthened this feeling, and the whole process went quickly and smoothly. Several times Storm went out of his way (and out of pocket) on his own initiative to ensure the system worked as well as possible, and when I noticed the output was lower than predicted after a few days, Storm didn't hesitate to look for possible reasons and solutions. A few years ago I had a similar situation with a PV system consistently underperforming over several weeks after install, and the installer grumpily told me to wait at least a year before coming to any conclusions. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Glo to anyone who's thinking of installing or upgrading PV, home storage or EV charging.

  Decided to add Battery Storage to our existing Solar PV System. Approached several companies for help and advice. Glo Renewables stood out from Day 1 with their friendly, helpful approach and knowledge. Had lower quotes from elsewhere though decided to go with Storm, Charlie and the Team at Glo because of the way they helped and advised over the phone and in person. Installation Day went without a hitch and the area in our garage was tidier, cleaner after the install than before. Battery System in operation for a week now and gaining more understanding of how it all works daily with ongoing support from Storm & Charlie by phone. Nothing is too much for them. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Glo Renewables, Totnes, Devon.

Benefits of installing an EV / electric vehicle charging point at your Devon home

renewable energy

Firstly, solar energy is a renewable and sustainable source of power, which means that it does not harm the environment or contribute to climate change. By harnessing the power of the sun, you can significantly reduce your carbon footprint and help protect the planet for future generations

energy independence

By generating your own electricity, you become less reliant on the grid and the power companies that provide it. This can be particularly valuable during power outages or other disruptions to the grid, as you will still have access to electricity from your solar panels. Additionally, being less dependent on the grid can help to reduce strain on the overall energy infrastructure, leading to more stable and reliable power for everyone.

save money

By installing solar panels on their roofs, homeowners can generate their own clean, renewable energy and potentially even sell excess energy back to the grid. With the decreasing cost of solar technology and the availability of government incentives, now is a great time for homeowners to invest in solar power.

Solar Panels in Devon: Environmental & Household Benefits

Solar panels have emerged as a green solution that combines environmental
responsibility with financial savings in the global quest for sustainable energy sources.
The multifaceted benefits of solar panels in the UK, highlighting their positive
impact on our planet and households.

embracing solar energy

By harnessing solar energy through solar panels, we can tap into an inexhaustible, green, and renewable source of power. Solar panels transform sunlight into electricity, providing a way of energy generation that doesn’t pollute the atmosphere with harmful greenhouse gases or worsen global warming.

As we harness the sun’s power, we make a conscious commitment to future generations, ensuring the preservation of our planet’s natural resources and fostering a greener and more sustainable future.

solar panels: clean and renewable energy

Solar energy is unique in its ability to tap into an inexhaustible resource: sunlight. The sun’s energy is boundless and readily available, making it a reliable power source for homes and businesses. Unlike finite fossil fuels, solar power is renewable, ensuring an everlasting clean energy supply.

By turning to solar power, we can significantly reduce our reliance on fossil fuels, curb carbon emissions, and considerably impact the fight against climate change.

solar panels and their impact on electricity bills

One of the most appealing financial advantages of solar panels is the significant reduction they can make to your electricity bills. By generating your electricity, you can substantially cut your reliance on the grid, leading to noticeable savings on your energy expenses.

Moreover, any excess electricity your solar panels produce can be fed back into the grid. Through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) in the UK, you can earn credits or even receive payments for this surplus electricity, further offsetting your energy costs.

EV Charging Questions

What does EV stand for?

An Electric Vehicle (EV) is a type of vehicle that is powered by an electric motor and a battery, rather than an internal combustion engine. EVs can be fully electric, meaning they run solely on electric power, or hybrid, meaning they have both an electric motor and an internal combustion engine.

Electric vehicles are gaining popularity due to their low environmental impact and cost-saving benefits. They emit zero tailpipe emissions, which means they produce no air pollution and contribute to better air quality. In addition, they can be charged at home or at public charging stations, which can be more cost-effective than traditional petrol or diesel cars.

There are several types of EVs available, including passenger cars, buses, trucks, and even motorcycles. The range of an EV can vary depending on the battery size and driving conditions, but advances in technology have led to longer ranges and faster charging times. As the world looks for ways to reduce emissions and combat climate change, electric vehicles are seen as an important part of the solution.

What is an EV charger?

An EV charger is a device that supplies electric energy to charge the battery of an electric vehicle. It is typically installed at a private residence, such as a home or apartment, and can be used to charge an EV overnight.

How do I choose the right EV charger for my home?

There are several factors to consider when choosing an EV charger for your home, such as the charging speed, compatibility with your vehicle, and cost. It’s recommended to consult with a qualified electrician or EV specialist to help you choose the right charger for your needs.

How much does it cost to install an EV charger at home?

The cost of installing an EV charger at home varies depending on several factors, such as the type of charger, the complexity of the installation, and the location of the property. However, homeowners can typically expect to pay several hundred to several thousand pounds for the installation.

Are there any grants or incentives available to help with the cost of installation?

Yes, homeowners in the UK may be eligible for various grants or incentives to help with the cost of installing an EV charger at home. For example, the government offers the Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme (EVHS), which provides financial support for the installation of home charging points.

Do I need planning permission to install an EV charger at home?

In most cases, planning permission is not required to install an EV charger at home. However, homeowners should always check with their local planning authority to confirm any specific requirements or regulations.

Do I need a qualified electrician to install an EV charger at home?

Yes, it’s recommended to have a qualified electrician install an EV charger at home. They will be able to ensure that the installation is safe and compliant with all necessary regulations.

Can I charge my EV at home using a regular household outlet?

While it’s possible to charge an EV using a regular household outlet, it’s not recommended. The charging speed will be much slower, and it may not be safe or compliant with all necessary regulations. It’s recommended to install a dedicated EV charger for optimal performance and safety.

How long does it take to charge an EV at home?

The time it takes to charge an EV at home depends on several factors, such as the size of the battery and the charging speed of the charger. However, most EVs can be fully charged overnight using a standard home charging point. Some EV chargers offer faster charging speeds, which can reduce the charging time.
