Solar Panels for Housing Associations Across the Midlands
Midlands housing associations are under pressure to decarbonise stock and reduce resident fuel poverty. Solar PV addresses both. We work with HAs on framework procurement, ECO4 grant stacking, and resident communication for solar retrofit programmes.
Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (Wave 2.2 closing 2026, Wave 3 expected 2027) — covers up to 50% of capital costs for energy improvements including solar. ECO4 on qualifying tenanted properties — covers solar plus insulation. Warm Homes Plan (post-2026) replacement scheme. We support HAs through procurement and funding application.
How we deliver at scale
For 20-100 property programmes we provide: dedicated programme manager, site survey schedule, resident leaflet (English + key Midlands community languages — Punjabi, Urdu, Polish), pre-install resident consultation, install in 1-day-per-property batches, handover pack per resident, full MCS certification.
Frequently asked questions about solar panels for housing associations
Do you work on PFI estates?▼
Yes — common across the West Midlands. PFI contracts have specific change-control processes which we navigate with your asset team.
Can we add battery storage at the same time?▼
Yes — and increasingly housing associations are doing this to help fuel-poor residents shift load off peak. Costs add £4,000-£6,000 per property.
Upgrade any package to the Fox ESS EP12 (11.52kWh) for £995.
All package prices assume every panel fits on a single roof elevation. The price covers the cost of scaffolding to one elevation. If your roof needs scaffolding on more than one elevation, or has restricted access, that additional cost is quoted separately after survey. Prices include VAT. Domestic solar and battery storage is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027. Subject to a free technical survey. We will confirm the final price in writing before any work is booked.
