Our story

Family run.
Local.
Trusted.

With a no-nonsense, full-disclosure approach, our mission is simple: to provide solar and battery storage systems that genuinely benefit you. If it’s not the right fit, we’ll tell you.

Founded in 2022 by Ellie and Adam, Solar Upgrades was born out of a shared passion for renewable energy and a desire to make a difference. Ellie and Adam combined their expertise to create a company that prioritises transparency, education, and exceptional service.

Since day one, we’ve been dedicated to making the transition to solar energy stress-free for our customers. From design to installation, and even ongoing support, we’re proud to offer a seamless, turn-key solution that puts your energy needs first.

Our team is the heart of Solar Upgrades. Every member brings years of experience, professional qualifications, and a commitment to excellence.

Solar Upgrades is proud to be accredited and affiliated with leading organisations in the renewable energy industry. We install only tier-one products backed by extensive product warranties and performance guarantees, giving you peace of mind that your investment is protected. Our systems come with a 10-year workmanship warranty.

Solar Upgrades is evolving to focus on domestic, commercial, and agricultural solar PV installations, delivering reliable and cost-effective energy solutions.

We are also the founders of The Solar Owners Club, a premium membership programme offering expert maintenance, priority support, and exclusive resources to ensure your solar system performs at its best.
