Simple, straightforward install from our expert team​

bigHead manufacture bonded fasteners for a range of industries. Installing solar panels made commercial and environmental sense for the sustainability-focused, energy-intensive business. Wanting a trusted, local installer to carry out the work, bigHead reached out to Good Energy Solar.​

“We are extremely impressed by the expertise and commitment both to sustainability and to great service displayed by the installation team.” Matthew Stevens, bigHead

Saving £8,000 per year on energy costs​

Since having their solar panels installed, bigHead have seen big savings in their energy bills. In the first six months, they saved over £4,000 – and expect that to double over a year long period.  During the summer months, bigHead were thrilled to see that their self-generated power covered 49% of their energy usage on site.​
