CLEAN ENERGY GENERATION & STORAGE

Solar PV & Battery Storage

INTELLIGENT ENERGY SOLUTIONS

Generating, Storing & Using Clean Energy More Intelligently

Solar PV and battery storage are becoming central to how housing providers reduce energy costs, improve EPC performance and decarbonise their stock. As electricity increasingly underpins low-carbon heating and communal services, the ability to generate, store and manage power on site is a critical part of future-ready housing. WarmPro delivers Solar PV and Battery Storage solutions designed to work as part of a wider retrofit strategy, ensuring systems are practical, compliant and deliver long-term value rather than short-term gains.

ON-SITE ELECTRICITY GENERATION

The Role of Solar PV in Housing Retrofit

Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems convert sunlight into electricity that can be used directly within a building or exported to the grid. When applied across social housing and public sector estates, Solar PV provides immediate and measurable benefits.

At scale, Solar PV helps housing providers:

Reduce communal and household electricity costs
Improve EPC ratings and SAP scores
Lower operational carbon emissions
Support residents facing rising energy prices
Increase the value and resilience of housing assets

Crucially, Solar PV works best when deployed as part of a broader retrofit programme, coordinated with insulation, ventilation and heating upgrades to maximise performance and resident benefit.

FLEXIBILITY AND RESILIENCE

Battery Storage (BESS): Unlocking Flexibility & Resilience

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) allow electricity generated on site, or drawn from the grid at low-cost periods, to be stored and used when demand is highest.

For housing providers, this delivers several advantages:

Improved self-consumption of solar energy, reducing waste
Lower reliance on peak-time grid electricity, cutting costs
Greater control over energy use, particularly in communal settings
Enhanced resilience, supporting essential services during outages or grid constraints

As heat pumps, electric heating and smart systems become more common, battery storage plays an increasingly important role in balancing demand and protecting residents from volatility in energy pricing.

INTEGRATED ENERGY STRATEGY

Designed as Part of a Whole-Building Energy Strategy

WarmPro does not treat Solar PV or battery storage as bolt-on technologies. Every system is designed in the context of the building as a whole, its fabric performance, occupancy, electrical capacity and long-term retrofit pathway.

This ensures:

Systems are correctly sized and economically justified
Roof structures, access and fire considerations are properly addressed
Electrical infrastructure can safely support current and future loads
Solar, storage and heating technologies work together rather than in isolation

This integrated approach protects long-term asset value and ensures systems deliver meaningful reductions in energy cost and carbon.

END-TO-END DELIVERY

Our Approach

We provide end-to-end delivery, with a focus on quality, compliance and long-term performance:

Feasibility & Energy Modelling

Assessment of roof suitability, orientation, shading, generation potential and demand profiles to ensure systems are viable and correctly sized. We model expected performance against actual energy use patterns, ensuring economic justification and realistic payback projections.

System Design & Coordination

Design of Solar PV and battery systems that integrate with existing electrical infrastructure and wider retrofit measures. We coordinate with structural engineers, fire consultants and electrical contractors to ensure safe, compliant installations that work with the building as designed.

Installation & Commissioning

Carefully managed installations in occupied homes and live environments, delivered with clear resident communication and robust site controls. All works are carried out by MCS-certified installers with full testing, commissioning and handover documentation.

Integration with Low-Carbon

Coordination with insulation upgrades, ventilation strategies and renewable heating systems to maximise overall energy efficiency. Solar and storage are designed to work alongside heat pumps and other low-carbon technologies, not as isolated measures.

Performance Support

Systems designed with monitoring, maintainability and future optimisation in mind, supporting long-term asset management. We provide clear documentation, training and performance data to ensure systems continue delivering value throughout their operational life.

RETROFIT AND ENERGY DELIVERY

Why WarmPro

WarmPro's experience sits at the intersection of retrofit and low-carbon energy delivery. This allows us to specify and install Solar PV and battery storage systems that are realistic, compliant and aligned with how buildings are actually used.

By embedding solar and storage within a wider retrofit framework, we help housing providers avoid underperforming or poorly integrated systems, protect long-term asset value, deliver meaningful reductions in energy cost and carbon, and build a scalable platform for future electrification.

If you're exploring Solar PV, battery storage, integrated energy strategies across your housing stock or other commercial assets, our team can support feasibility, design and delivery immediately.
