Colin's Journey to lower bills and cleaner energy with solar
“Service was excellent — shame other companies are not like this.”
🏠 The Challenge:
Colin had looked into solar before, but a quote from an unreliable installer put him off. It was Solar Together Cambridgeshire that finally gave him and his partner the confidence to move forward — and with Greenscape, that confidence proved well placed. Environmental responsibility and keeping bills low for the long term were the goals, and the system has delivered on both.
🚀 The Solution:
Seven panels and two 2.4kWh Pylon batteries were fitted across a two-day installation — a heatwave making conditions so challenging that Colin put a fan in the loft for the electrician. Paired with an Octopus Agile tariff, the couple now take full advantage of cheap and even negative-priced energy periods to heat their home and charge the batteries, exporting very little as they consume almost everything generated.
🔋 The Results:
The impact has been substantial. Annual grid consumption has fallen from an estimated 7,022kWh in 2021 to around 4,998kWh — a saving of roughly 2,000kWh per year. Crucially, the system was installed ahead of the energy price spike, shielding the household from the worst of the grid pricing rises. A third Pylon battery is now being quoted for.
💡 Colin’s Advice:
Do it — put a lot in, to get a lot out. The panels are so much better these days.
The two technicians, Luke & Cam arrived as scheduled, were courteous and respectful. They carried out the work as requested and invited me to inspect what they had done.
Luke also clarified and guided me through a particular aspect on the Solis App.

As usual, Greenscape customer service resolved my query quickly and professionally. I had a query about winter settings for my batteries which Chloe resolved for me and then sent a follow up email to confirm all is in place. Thank you!

Harry fixed a persistent problem we've had for years. Over the last 4 years, a number of engineers had a go at fixing this but without success. Very happy with Harry and the knowledge he had of the Mitsubishi system

Both Brandon and young apprentice Ellis arrived on time to install my long awaited Pylontech battery. What can I say, they were very smart, professional and most polite. Greenscape have a good team here, please retain them and do pass on my best regards to them both. Cheers Paul

Chloe was very helpful with my winter settings, my app wasn’t the same as the written instructions but she just did it for me and then checked to see it was all working correctly.

I have used Greenscape Energy to install Solar Panels and Tesla Powerwall batteries and I can confidently state that they are an excellent company to deal with. I recently had a minor problem with the batteries not being charged during the cheap rate. Greenscape could not have been more helpful and put me in contact with Tesla to resolve the problem. Fantastic service from a professional company.

Michaela, dealt with my finance query in a professional, efficient manner, and placated my fears that the progress on my solar system would be paused until the return of the surveyor from holiday. Good customer care. Thank you

I have been very impressed with the service I received from Greenscape. The initial survey was very professionally done by Andrew and I was pleased that he convinced me not to have more panels than necessary. The team that installed the battery and inverter were excellent and very pleasant to deal with. The system is up and running and there have been no complications. I thoroughly recommend Greenscape.

I arranged to have solar panels and a battery installed by Greenscape via OVO Energy. From start to finish, the service has been excellent. From the survey, to the panel installation and battery installation, every team member has been professional and very friendly. The after sales have kept in contact to make sure everything has gone smoothly. Couldn't fault Greenscape.
