What sets us apart?

Our background..

Everbright Solar Ltd was formed by two directors with vast experience in 2 industries, which are crucial to a professional solar PV installation. These industries are roofing, and electrical and mechanical installations.

Nick Morris is a director/owner of Barris Roofing Ltd.. an NFRC, Trustmark, Competent Roofer & Safe2Torch London based roofing contractor, established since 1984.

Wayne Hogsden is a director/owner of BW Electrical and Mechanical Ltd, a large scale NICEIC accredtited commercial & domestic electrical contractor, based in the South East.

Together, these two industries form a perfect base of experience and professionalism for solar PV and battery storage solutions.

Our clients..

We offer our services to domestic and commercial clients in London, Surrey, Kent & East Sussex. We can install systems of all sizes, from small systems under the G98 3.68kWh limitations, to larger systems including G99 applications, from start to finish. We are also qualified to install battery storage.

Our goals..

Our primary goal is to scale our solar PV business, offering a complete and professional service, from survey to commissioning of the system to domestic and commercial clients in the South east. We are currently undertaking every accreditation available. Despite being accredited with our existing companies, we aim to achieve independent accreditations for Everbright, including MCS, Trustmark, NAPIT and CHAS.

Our short term aim is to scale the business to 25 installs per month by May 2025. We have the necessary qualified and trained labour to achieve this, via our connections with competent and reliable staff that are currently working with our other companies.

So what makes us different?..

Our biggest edge over our competitors is our experience gained from our existing companies. There are plenty of great Solar PV installers in the London area, but very few have such extensive roofing experience. Roofing is a major part of a solar PV install, avoiding leaks, poor designs and safety hazards.

Our NTP (nomiated technical person), Wayne Hogsden, has already completed 2 solar specific courses via NICEIC. These courses were in Solar PV installations & Battery Storage. Wayne is currently awaiting his EV charger course, adding another branch of services to our already extensive list.

Re access.. we also have access to a fleet of cherry pickers, for panel loading and maintenance projects.

Here is a summary of our advantages:

  • Extensive roofing experience

  • Extensive electrical installation experience

  • Capacity to keep lead times below 3 weeks

  • Access to highly trained staff, currently emploed by our other companies

  • MCS standards followed at all times, including professionally designed panel/racking designs adhering to MCS structural standards.

  • Excellent trade links, to keep material costs down

  • Unrivalled scaffolding and access contacts, to keep access safe and inexpensive

  • A fleet of cherry pickers owned by another of our companies

  • Yards in Fulham, Croydon and Oxted for nearby storage to our catchment areas.

  • A company mission statement focused on quality, customer satisfaction & the highest install standards, all placed above profitability.

We believe that with this thorough list of advantageous skills and services, we are perfectly placed to undertake your solar PV / battery storage project!
