Smarter Green Energy Limited

If you are looking for a reputable and reliable Cornish firm to fit your solar panels Green Energy deserves to be top of your list. This customer focused firm provides an outstanding level of expertise, backed up with an after service which is second to none. I highly recommend them.

Just had 14 solar panels installed and 11kw of batteries with inverter. From deciding what was needed for our needs and having a consultation i was glad we made the choice to use this company. From start to finish the professionalism was just fantastic. I was kept upto date on the process and install dates and everything ran as i had hoped. Im 3 weeks in and haven't used any electricy from the grid. The solax app is very easy to see how much you are producing and how much electric you are using in real time. I now have an electric car so the savings I am now producing is everything I was promised. Thank you for a great service. Now I smile when the sun is shining as Im now selling excess to the grid.

We recently contacted Tim regarding our system that the team insisted a few years ago as the battery's were not responding or charging. Tim responded straight away and guided me through the restart but there was still a fault so an engineer was sent out within a couple of weeks to resolve the problem which was a broken wire . I found Tim and the team to be very professional and very quick with response considering they were under pressure with other installations. I would highly recommend Tim and the smarter green Energy team .

I’m so impressed by these guys. Tim was brilliant, came out to see us and ensured everything was explained clearly. They gave us an install date that was met and the installation was smooth with a brilliant, knowledgeable and very friendly crew. We’re up and running on time and I couldn’t be happier. Highly recommended.

Very professional service! Thank you for replacing our solar panel inverter. The service was friendly, quick and efficient. We had an honest quote, with no hidden extras, we really appreciate the whole experience. Thank you for doing such a fantastic job for us.

Had a new inverter fitted. Very quick from start to finish. Friendly and knowledgeable. Job done. Thank you.

One of the most honest salemen i have ever met. Tim declined our job (worth £20k) because he felt that our roof structure was not strong enough to take the extra weight of the panels. Our roof is sound but is 250 years old and, therefore, not designed to support solar panels. We have since had Tim's advice confirmed by structural engineer. Thanks Tim for your honesty - shame the other 4 companies didn't show your integrity!

Our second solar install from Tim and again we are extremely pleased with the system. Excellent service from great bunch of people. Our previous installation was so efficient that it gained us an EPC rating of A when it came to sell the property.

A good quote from Tim’s company with a quick installation date. Roofers were quick and efficient and the electricians were excellent

We have just had solar panels installed by Smarter Green Energy and were very impressed by the professionalism of the whole team. They were careful, considerate and cheerful, a pleasure to have around. They all clearly had our best interests at heart, were concerned that we understood how to get the best from the system and we would recommend them to anyone wanting to do their bit to save the planet.

Tim and the team at Smarter Green Energy designed, recommended and installed an excellent solar panel system on time and without a hitch. Totally professional and completely reliable every aspect of the installation went like clockwork and we are extremely pleased with the service Tim provided and the support he continues to give. We would recommend Tim and Smart Green Energy to anyone looking to install a solar system. Vernon & Georgie Turner

We are very pleased with all the work done. All aspects on time and professionally finished.

A Great company to deal with. I had a solar and battery system fitted by Smarter Green Energy and I could not be happier. I had five visits/quotes from various companies. These guys weren’t the cheapest as such, but were not far away. BUT no pressure selling, no hidden costs, clear pricing, and accurate technical details. Installation was straightforward and went exactly to plan with friendly competent workers. Tim (the boss) kept us fully informed and checked we were happy throughout. And everything is working perfectly of course! If you want to spend your money wisely and get what you pay for then I thoroughly recommend Smarter Green Energy.

We knew we wanted solar panels and an EV charger and the ability to heat our hot water tank from the solars, but hadn’t had time to do much research into options. Tim came recommended to us from another happy customer so we trusted him to sort us out and he really took the stress out of organising the whole thing. He came over, designed the ideal system for what we need, fitted in a timely manner and was able to work around another roofing job we had going on. System has been doing great, nice peace of mind with the volatility of oil prices atm!

Smarter Green Energy especially Tim has always been professional, polite, thorough and personable. Their work is first class and there after service second to none. Recently we have contacted them with an unexpected fault in our EDDI, the response was quick and the fault corrected promptly. I would highly recommend the firm. Kim Hewlett

Had our Solar Panels fitted in 2012 by a company now not trading. Contacted Smarter Green Energy for advice and our options. From the start Tim was down to earth professional and honest. Our dated system has now been future proofed with non degraded panels, bird protection battery storage, Solar Inverters and EV charging point when required. His teams attention to detail and communication throughout were fantastic and why we given 5 stars and fully recommend them to anyone who has had Solar for more than 10 yrs or is now just thinking about installing PV.

Very professional service and good quality installation.

Tim recognised the fault in an elderly existing inverter and couldn't have been more helpful at sorting it. I'd had six week lead in times from other companies but his engineer was round within the week to install a new Solax machine. It was connected to the solar panels in only an hour and the system was up and running at 25 percent higher output than ever before. You couldn't do better than use Smarter Green Energy for solar panel systems.

Solar panels - a minefield to the uninitiated. Tim @ Smarter Green Energy made things pretty simple. His was the first of many companies that we spoke to. He visited the property in person, explained everything and left us to make a decision, no pressure, no hassle and made himself available to answer any questions. We had a look at 5 or 6 other providers, one offered service like Tim. Did the deal and everything happened when it should, scaffolding up on time, fitters did a great job and left the place tidy afterwards. Even now, 5 months later Tim is still answering random questions we have. Can’t recommend Tim and his company enough. So if you’re thinking about solar panels but don’t know where to begin, give Tim a call, you won’t regret it.

Tim was great from start to finish- did exactly what he said he would do and super organised. Very very happy we decided to go with a local business who are at the end of the phone for any questions. Highly recommend.

We contacted Tim when we moved into our new bungalow as he had previously fitted the existing solar system. We were very pleased with our new home but it had an electric boiler to run the wet central heating system and was very inefficient. The previous occupant had left a leaflet about infra red heating which Tim also fits. I did my research and was sold on it. We got a quote after a visit by Tim and agreed a price. A few weeks later his fitters Byron and Sam arrived and the system was installed. The lads were excellent, they worked clean and kept us informed as the job progressed. It's early days but the system seems very good with a different but nicer feel than traditional central heating. I would have no hesitation in highly recommending this company. Thanks

I honestly couldn’t be happier with the service I received from Smarter Green Energy. From the very first enquiry through to final installation, the communication was excellent. Everything was explained clearly, timelines were set and kept, and I always felt fully informed throughout the process. The installation was completed exactly as scheduled and ran smoothly from start to finish. The team on site were fantastic — polite, professional, engaging, and very knowledgeable. They took the time to answer my questions and explain how the system works, which I really appreciated. A special mention to the owner/manager, Tim, for running such a well-organised operation. Credit also to the scaffolders, roofers, and electricians — everyone worked efficiently and showed real pride in their work. It was clear that quality and customer satisfaction genuinely matter to this company. It’s so refreshing to deal with a company that delivers on its promises. If you’re considering solar, I would highly recommend talking to Smarter Green Energy. First-class service all round.

Could not be happier with our solar and battery installation from Smarter Green Energy. Tim and his team were so professional, knowlegeable and efficient. Having Tim visit us to talk through the best options for us was hugely appreciated along with excellent post installation follow up. Cannot recommend highly enough.

I have used Tim’s company and systems before at.previous property and am delighted with the reliable and efficient service he provides. I thoroughly recommend him and his company, he will be here after other companies have gone!

Excellent service and the product is amazing no electricity bills in the summer and very affordable on the good days.Can definitely recommend Smart Green Energy

We have just had our install of Solar Panels, Inverter and Battery's fitted by Smarter Green Energy, and I can give them nothing but praise. Right from the start with the site visit by Tim, through to scaffolding, roofers, electricians were carried out to a very high professional standard. I would recommend this Company if your considering going down the Solar route.

Excellent and professional installation by Smarter Green Energy. Everything was smooth and the work done to a high standard of expertise. Couldn't ask for more.

Had solar panels and batteries installed just before Christmas. The team were great very professional and kept everywhere tidy. Tim gave us all the information needed to make an informed decision. Happy to recommend this company.

Smarter green energy installed our system 3 years ago and we have been absolutely delighted. Exceptionally good service and ongoing support provided by Tim. Highly recommended.

Smarter green energy installed our Solar Panels batteries and an Eddi everything went smoothly from the very beginning they used our past electricity bills to figure out how big the system needed to be. They also managed to schedule survey, scaffolding and installation at times that work for everybody involved and kept to them. The installation team was super professional, friendly, and efficient. They got the whole system up and running in just two days after the scaffolding went up, and they took it down again Finish. promptly.

Very pleased with the professionalism and service provided by Tim and his team for our solar pv installation. The team accommodated a few key requests and kept us involved every step of the way. Thank you to all.

I had been attempting to get the Solar energy system setup on a sell back tariff with EDF at my home however the previous owners had not left any of the documents behind. I discovered Smart Green Energy had completed the work, which I must say is a first class installation and works perfectly. I contact Tim, who has gone above and beyond what I could have expected to assist me getting all the documentation required. The communication has been great and I look forward to working with Tim and Smart Green Energy again in the future.

Very efficient service replacing 45 internal and external lights at Redruth Community Centre. Thankyou

I'm extremely pleased with my solar & battery installation from Smarter green energy. The system has performed perfectly through the summer, & I was impressed that Tim reached out proactively to advise on winter battery settings to optimise the system. Tim's attention to detail & ongoing customer support is outstanding. 100% recommend Smarter green energy.

Excellent explanation of the process of battery installation with personalised considerations. Done at the time proposed by competent and pleasant workers. Boss Tim available when needed and has continued with follow-up advice and action. The installation is neat and unobtrusive though quite large ......well located. I feel my system is in good hands and would recommend Smarter Green Energy, as it was recommended to me

Retro fit of batteries for existing solar panels. Fount of good information! Everyone involved was helpful, polite and professional. Always helpful and available to discuss other options and anything else you might want to discuss!

Well this ol cowboy has to give this company a ten star review. I always wanted to install solar heating in my old Cornish cottage to bring me in to the 21st century. Tim came out and explained that it would not be worth the expense in my personal situation. Due to the houses position and the inflexibility of moving the suns path. He demonstrated integrity and a level of honesty rarely seen in this money driven age. This is one firm that puts the customer first. Good on you Tim.

I had an excellent meeting with Tim Fitzgerald where he explained all details of my Solax AC batteries. There was no pressure just an indepth clear description of what Smart Energy would supply. The instal team of Ben and Owen were outstanding and they explained what they were doing when I asked for details. They were very polite and hard working and the installation was completed on time. They helped me to set up the app on my phone as I had a problem doing it myself. Overall I would have no hesitation in recommending Smart Energy to any other prospective customers.

After several quotes for a solar system we went with Smarter Green Energy. We found Tim to be very punctual and informative, helping to choose the right system for our needs. He kept us up dated before the installation and offering support and advice post installation. The installers were excellent and can see why they have been used for many of Smarter Green Energy's installs.

Tim was really fantastic to deal with. He took us through every step of having our system installed. Scaffolding was up and down in a few days and Byron, lead installer, couldn't do enough. First rate service. After service also great, a glitch in the system dealt with quickly and personally by Tim. 🌟😀

Quite simply. Smarter Green Energy Ltd, promised and delivered 100% satisfaction. Professional, punctual, and personable.

We recently had solar panels installed by Smarter Green Energy. Tim and his team have been excellent throughout, making this experience care free.

Have had our panels and batteries for 3 years, doing a great job and more than earning their keep. From my first contact with Tim this has been an excellent experience from sales, installation to customer support 👍👍

First class service from Tim, he installed a comprehensive package at my previous property and was the go to provider for my intended installation at my new property. In my opinion, a local company with a fantastic service record, well done to "Smarter Green Energy " 💚

We had solar panels, a battery and an Eddi installed two years ago. The process was very smooth: Tim was very clear and helpful in recommending what to do, installation occurred on time, scaffolding was up and down very quickly before and after the installation, the team was friendly and efficient. Since then there have been no problems with the system and our electricity bill has all but disappeared. I can certainly recommend Smarter Green Energy.

We absolutely recommend Tim and his team. They weren't the cheapest quote - but we've had cheap before and got no support. With Tim, everything was explained clearly, he's monitoring our battery to check it's all good (it is!), he's answered all my questions I've texted. His team who fitted the battery were brilliant. So friendly, helpful and tidied up everything after. Well worth paying a bit more for the service and support we got and are still getting.

I used this company after a personal recommendation. A real pleasure to deal with and absolutely no sales pressure. The job was completed quickly and efficiently keeping me informed at all stages. If you are looking for a solar solution I wholeheartedly recommend this company.

I have used Smarter Green Energy before so know that Tim & his team are very reliable but this time they excelled. We had new a new Solar system fitted & the whole process ran smoothly from start to finish. The whole system was installed in a day & the team were polite & very proffesional & they left our property how they found it. I cannot recommend Tim & Smarter Green Energy enough.

Had our panels and batteries installed 3 1/2 years ago. Delighted! Tim and his team worked efficiently and there were no problems. Recommended

I had a replacement inverter and new battery system installed in 2019. Very pleased with performance. Tim and his team were excellent throughout and continued with great customer service onwards. All queries and emails are answered promptly.

Over 5 years ago Smarter Green Energy fitted our battery storage system which was completed on time and has worked very well for us. Any queries we had Tim answered promptly and to our satisfaction. We recommended him to a friend and he completed this work to his satisfaction.

Tim fitted batteries to our solar installation and has provided an excellent service both in the installation and after care aspects. A thoroughly recommended installer.

Very pleased with Tim and his team work started on the day it was supposed to with the fitters arriving spot on time to install our solar batteries and inverter. Very clean and and tidy and polite kept us informed throught the fit. A very professional team would highly recomend

Smarter Green Energy completed an excellent installation and I would strongly recommend them to any one considering solar panels. Tim is very knowledgeable and helpful with a very Professional team of trades to support him.

Tim installed our solar PV and battery system 3 years ago. Very efficient and professional installation by the whole team. Since then any queries we have had have been dealt with quickly and to our complete satisfaction. Tim is always available by phone or email.

Tim was a great help in choosing our solar panel system. The whole workforce were very professional and did a great job. Had a small leak after panels installed but roofers were back and fixed very quickly with no fuss. Would highly recommend.

Tim from Smarter Green Energy installed our solar panels complete with battery around 3 years ago. It was one of the best investments that we made and choosing Smarter Green Energy was an excellent choice. Tim is always on hand with help and advice and should something go wrong then he will fix it ASAP. This is a small company with professional trades people and we wouldn't hesitate on recommending them.

I highly recommend Smarter Green Energy. Tim was very informative, didn’t put any pressure on me to buy, nor did he ‘oversell’ as he could have easily have suggested more solar panels and I probably wouldn’t have known whether I needed more or not. The delivery and installation was seamless and Tim oversaw the whole process. Tim checked everything was working correctly and I received all the paperwork for guarantees and to enable me to sell back to grid. I have now had my solar panels and battery pack for two years without any issues and I am really pleased I chose Smarter Green Energy. I also know I could contact Tim at any point should I have any queries in the future.

First class service , with all works fully explained, we gave had 2 storage batteries fitted , excellent workmanship and good value

A superb company - patient beyond expectation, keen to explain and answer all questions without treating you like an idiot! Wonderful fitters - polite, courteous and considerate and who enjoyed tea and coffee!

We had solar panels and battery 3 years ago. Excellent, friendly service. Scaffolding came just prior and was removed promptly. The installation happened on the date given. No mess and follow up several times to see that we were happy. Lovely people to deal with .

We’ve had our system for almost two and a half years. It’s been great and we’re really pleased with it. From the first visit, where Tim gave us excellent advice (without any pressure whatsoever), to completion of the installation, everything was done in an efficient and careful way. It has made a really significant difference to our electricity bills. First rate service and a first rate product.

I recently had solar panels installed and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From the initial consultation to the final installation, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. They explained everything clearly, helped me choose the best system for my needs, and handled all the paperwork. The installation itself was completed on schedule, with minimal disruption. The team was tidy, respectful, and clearly very skilled. I was especially impressed with how they talked me through the monitoring system and showed me how to track my energy generation. Since installation, my energy bills have dropped noticeably. I highly recommend Tim to anyone who is considering solar panels. Pete and Selina

I give Smarter Energy 5 star rating. We live in a Conservation Area (article 4) in Cornwall. After being initially knocked back my the local council. Smarter Energy came up with a design which was acceptable to Cornwall council planners. The installation was very professional, outstanding workmanship, excellent quality of materials. They arrived on time each day and left the site clean and tidy. The system, app and information was fully explained. We have had no problems and the system they designed has been fantastic. We would highly recommend them. Mr and Mrs S Allen Looe.

Smarter Green Energy installed our solar panels over a year ago. I have no regrets about having solar panels installed and definitely no regrets about using Smarter Green Energy to do the work. The advice given by Tim was spot on, the installation by all contractors was efficient and done to time. Since then, Tim has kept monitoring the system, and our energy bill has been reduced dramatically. Well done Smarter Green Energy. I would have no hesitation in recommending this company to anyone considering solar panels.

Tim at smarter green energy fitted our solar system 2 years ago and we are very pleased with the results and have noticed much lower electricity bills and the app is useful for monitoring purposes. Tim was very helpful in advising the best system for our needs and explained things in detail with good follow up support. Both the panel fitting team and electrical team were very good with a high standard of work. Overall I would highly recommend Tim and smarter green energy if you are considering having a solar installation.

Tim was really informative when helping us decide on the system that was right for us. The install was seamless and the team were really friendly and efficient. The after service has been great from Tim, replying quickly whenever we have a question. Would recommend.

Had solar and battery storage install and was really impressed. Very knowledgeable and professional with a personal approach. Tim walked us through what we needed and the install went ahead without any issues. I had follow up questions and they were on hand to guide us through the setup. Would def recommend as they weren’t the more competitive on price than the national firms and much better service.

Smarter Green Energy were excellent from the start and communication was great. I have been delighted with our battery and its performance has reduced our electricity usage dramatically as the hot tub overnight is generally fully powered. Tim Fitzgerald and his team are very professional and would recommend them if you are thinking of getting a battery storage system.

Gave us lots of information as to best setup, leaving us to decide without any pressure. Easy to contact with any queries. The advantage of a local supplier.

We have had our solar system for nearly 12 months now and have had some great results with energy generation and solar heated hot water. We can highly recommend Tim and his team from Smarter Green Energy for excellent value for money and first class after sales service and advice.

Absolutely excellent and sound advice in respect to the panels, siting of the inverter etc. the installation was smooth and efficient. The pack and warranty very clear and professionally written. Tim gave me a follow up visit and another telephone call. Very appreciative of his personal touch. I would definitely recommend.

Excellent service from Tim and his team. Responded quickly and did the job in a professional manner. Happy to recommend them.

After a fair bit of research and meeting a few other suppliers we had solar panels and batteries fitted by Smarter Green Energy in October 2022 and they have exceeded our expectations. Tim and his team completed the work on schedule and with the minimum of disruption I would highly recommend them.

V happy with installation and the follow up help we’ve had

We have solar panels and batteries fitted by Smarter Green Energy and are very pleased with them. Tim and the team could not have been more friendly, helpful or organised. So much so, we subsequently asked Tim to supply and fit infra red heaters which work brilliantly with our set up. Highly recommend.

It’s difficult picking a reliable solar installer but I hit lucky with Smarter Green Energy. The initial site survey was thorough and included not only a review of the building itself but also a separate visit from the electrician to be sure everything would be done correctly. Installation took a couple of days and the roofers made an excellent job mounting the panels. They really look good. I had a requirement for the panels to work with an existing battery and car charger and they met these requirements perfectly. Importantly the inverter was sized just right for the power generated. Definitely highly recommend Smarter Green Energy who have been in the business for a number of years, who are genuinely interested in getting things right and are fairly priced.

Excellent advice, fitting and aftercare. This installation, whilst not big, was tricky .. but everyone worked together to ensure the best result!

The whole process of setting up the solar panels was done quickly and efficiently . I have 10 panels that are supplying my house with electricity and I am about to start selling the surplus power back to the grid.

So pleased with the solar system that Tim installed for me I have now asked him to install a battery backup to supplement the installation. First class system project managed by Tim himself. Thank you, Tim and your team, of experts. Back up battery storage system now installed by Tim and as expected perfect! and if I want additional storage capacity Tim can install an additional unit or two, very flexible system! .... all this competively priced .

After many years of sterling service it became clear that our solar thermal installation was in need of a major overhaul, well; to be honest, it needed replacing. And with the advent of cold fill washing machines one of the big advantages was lost when we had to replace our old hot fill machine with one that use expensive electricity to heat water rather than use the hot water heated by the solar thermal system. The time had come to move to a solar EV system and we started getting quotes. Several companies actually provided full system quotes without even visiting us, which seemed a bit odd and we disregarded them immediately. And then met Tim Fitzgerald from Smarter Green Energy. Tim is passionate about the benefits and importance of utilising solar power and spent a lot of time listening to our requirements. He explaining what he thought would suit us, given our circumstances and the orientation of the roof, 130 degrees approximately east south east, hardly ideal but with modern solar panels good enough to be cost effective. We decided on a 12 panel system without batteries but with an Eddi, to direct surplus energy into the hot water immersion heater. We were surprised to be told that the installation would only take one day but thought we’d believe that when we saw it but having made the decision, we saw no virtue in delay and signed the contract on 31st August. Tim kept us fully advised re progress; surveys were arranged, the electricians made a thorough inspection of the property, explained what would be installed and where, with no problems being envisaged. The the day before installation the scaffolding was erected, another surprisingly quick operation, with every effort being made to inconvenience us as little as possible. On the day itself, 12th October 2023, the weather could have been kinder but the first van arrived before 8.00 a.m. and by 4 p.m. everyone had left, job done. We even generated a little power! Once he was happy with the installation Tim arranged for the removal of the scaffolding and returned a few days later with all the paperwork including warranty. Since installation we have became obsessed with checking the various apps to see how much power our new solar panels are generating. The only down side of the installation was actually getting a contract to export surplus energy back to our supplier, Octopus Energy. Because we hadn't already got a working Smart Meter, that took 3 months, persistence and several emails. Despite the generally dreadful weather this winter, on 26th March 2024 we passed the 1MWh of clean solar energy generated by our Smarter Green Energy installation. With over 23.5KWh generated on 26th March, so we have high hopes for the rest of the year. We are now exporting back to the grid most days, which always makes me smile. As Tim explained, to get the most out of your PV system takes a little effort, try to utilise as much of your home generated power as possible. Simple things help, like changing your kettle for one with a smaller element, it may take a little longer to boil but it may also mean that you can more often power it from your roof rather than have to buy in expensive mains power. We are delighted with our Solar PV system. It’s good for us, our bills and the planet and recommend anyone considering installing solar power talk to Tim Fitzgerald at Smarter Green Energy for honest advice and excellent service.
