Solar, battery and EV charging planned around your Hampshire home.
Solar panels, battery storage and EV charging work best when they are planned together. Tell us how your home uses electricity now and what may change next, and we design the system around that demand.
Free to ask, with no obligation to go further. Qualifying payment routes available.
Free and no obligation. Asking about payment options is not a finance application and won't affect your credit file.
One system, planned in three stages.
Panels generate it, a battery holds it, a charger puts it to work. Most Hampshire homes start with the roof and add to it, and designing for the full picture from the start keeps the equipment compatible and the cabling tidy.
Solar panels
Sized to your roof and your electricity use, with the inverter chosen to suit a battery or charger if you want one now or later.
See solar installation in Hampshire →Battery storage
Holds spare daytime generation for the evening, and on the right tariff can fill up on cheaper off-peak electricity.
Compare home battery storage →EV charging
A home charger on its own circuit, able to take spare solar before it takes anything from the grid.

A battery sized to how your home uses power.
A battery keeps spare daytime solar for the evening instead of exporting it for very little. The right size depends on when your household uses electricity, so we size it around the home you have and the one you are heading towards.
- Evening use.Stored solar covers cooking, lighting and the television once the panels have stopped producing.
- Off-peak charging.Fill the battery when electricity is cheapest, then draw on it when it is dearest.
- Room for new loads.Choose battery and inverter capacity with a future EV or heat pump in mind.
Real Hampshire homes, real numbers.
Four homes, from Gosport and Waterlooville to Fareham and Portsmouth. Each system was designed for its own household, and the benefit figure was calculated when it went in.

Pop in your postcode and we'll start your home energy plan. Free, and no obligation.
Compare the cards and no two systems match, because no two households use power the same way.
Figures are the estimated first-year benefit calculated for each customer's own system at the time of installation, based on MCS-standard assessment methodology. They are estimates, not guarantees, so actual savings vary with household usage, weather and electricity prices.
Equipment that works together, checked first.
- One system, not three separate quotes.Panels, inverter, battery and charger are specified together, so compatibility is settled before anything is ordered.
- An engineer on site.Your roof, shading, consumer unit and cable routes are inspected in person before any proposal exists. No satellite guesswork, no photo-based estimates.
- Every assumption on paper.The plan states system size, yearly generation, the shading allowance and the share your household is expected to use itself. Where EPVS validation applies, an independent body checks those performance figures.
- Room to grow.If a battery or charger is coming later, the inverter and the electrics are checked for it now, so adding it is a small job and not a rewiring.
Build the system around the home, then structure the payment.
Solar, storage and EV charging can be combined into one project where appropriate, with qualifying payment options considered against the final design. Compare the project cost with the energy plan, side by side. Nothing is guaranteed. Your proposal lists the cost, the benefit it is expected to deliver and every payment route as separate lines.
Pay outright
Pay the project cost in one go and the system is yours outright.
Monthly payments
Fixed repayments over an agreed term, where you qualify. Stretching the term lowers each payment but adds to the total cost of credit.
Start with nothing to pay
Where eligible, a project can start with nothing paid upfront, and short-term 0% offers turn up on selected products from time to time. Eligibility depends on your circumstances, so we raise both once the design is settled.
Multiple homes, one area?
Ask about current neighbourhood or area-installation offers. If nearby homes are installing around the same time, we can check whether anything applies when you add your postcode.
Finance is subject to status, affordability and lender approval. The installation team behind Hampshire Solar acts as a credit broker, not a lender. Asking about payment options is not a finance application and won't affect your credit file.
No obligation to go beyond the assessment.
Treat the enquiry as a planning exercise. You find out what a system could do for your home, and you decide what happens next.
Describe the home
Answer a handful of questions about the property, your usage and anything electric you plan to add.
Feasibility check
We judge whether the roof and electrics justify a visit, and may reach out to clarify a detail.
Survey, then a written plan
An engineer visits, then your written plan sets out what will be fitted, what it should produce, how it is covered and how you can pay.
Your decision
Asking commits you to nothing. If you do proceed, most installs take a day or two.
Installing across Hampshire.
Southampton, Portsmouth and Winchester, Basingstoke, the Solent coast and the New Forest are all covered. Put your postcode into your plan request and we will check coverage for your address.
Questions about planning solar, battery and EV together.
Should I design solar around a future EV?
If a car is likely within a few years, yes. A charger adds a regular evening or overnight load, which changes the best panel count, inverter and battery size. Planning for it now means the system fits the household you will have, and the charger can be added later without rework.
Is it better to install solar, battery and charger together?
Often, but not always. Done together, the equipment is specified as one system, the electrical work is planned once and one survey covers it all. If the budget says stage it, we can design it that way and make sure each later addition will connect cleanly.
Can storage use off-peak tariffs?
Yes. With a time-of-use tariff, the battery tops up at the cheap overnight rate and then feeds the home through the pricier hours. Savings depend on the tariff and your usage, which we check before suggesting it.
