Sustainable Energy Engineering

Due to an unruly body of water I've had the rare pleasure of living with my system (well...at least half of it) for a few months before the job was fully completed. I was already happy but, now that I have all my certs, MAPN etc. and everything is up and running, I am delighted, zero complaints. Engineers were knowledgeable, courteous and good craic. Management? Same, plus a degree of flexibility and understanding when you, for example, tell them that the water that runs along the side of your property would be: "....ah yeah, all dried up by February, no worries..." ...in fact, wasn't, still hasn't. Whoops. I'm not guaranteeing that you can make a not-so-insignificant mistake, and they'll just handle it for you, but they did for me! My roof is full, but if I ever need more batteries I'll be back, and should they ever diversify into water wheels I will know who to call.

It has been a pleasure working with Sustainable Energy Engineering. I chose this company because they are local and because of their previous excellent feedback. I wanted a local company in case of future issues, but I don’t need to worry about that. Solar power system and battery installed and commissioned within 7 weeks of initial enquiry. The quote for 12 solar panels, a large capacity battery, scaffolding was extremely competitive. On the day, the team of lads turned up on time with 2 vans, were extremely curtious and kept us up to date with what was going on. Having had solar power at my previous address, I can state that the work carried out was too a seriously very high standard. The lads even noticed a tile broken by the scaffolders and fixed that on site. The whole thing took a full day but was worth it. The team leader, took me on a walk around post commission, talking me through everything and then helped set up my monitoring app before he left. The whole area was cleaned up and no mess left. Scaffolding was removed 2 days later. The required install documentation was also available immediately after the final payment made. From initial discussions with the boss, through to office comms and dealing with the install, it has been an easy painless journey and I cannot praise this company enough. From competitive price, through to speed of install and the high quality of work done, this company is unbeatable. I’m already saving lots of money on electric bills and have already started the process of getting paid for giving excess power back to the grid. Using this company to take you through a cost saving venture like this is a no-brainer. June 2026 - UPDATE Came back to Sustainable Energy Engineering for an EV Charger install a year after my solar power and home battery install. Arrived on time and completely professional as usual. Now charging my new electric car from home using the power from my solar panels and making tremendous savings on my utility and car fuel bills. These guys are extremely busy but still find the time to resolve any potential snags or issues, which are dealt within a timely manner. The company is outstanding and always give 110% effort and support. I totally recommend this company. Thank you again guys :)

From the initial phone call to the installation & handover it's been a pleasure to do business. The quote & visit were well informed & good advice given. The installation was done to a high standard & very tidy, no mess left behind at all & were very respectful of our property. Thank you!

This is the second time I've used Sustainable Energy Engineering, having solar panels installed on my previous house in 2022. As I was very happy with the service and a competitive quote, I decided to use them again for a 12 x 500w panel installation with 11 kWh battery, 6kW inverter and grid gateway switch, together with installation of my ev charger. All aspects of the work from initial survey and quotation from Steve, being kept up to date from office staff through to instalation by the team was done very professionally. Would definitely recommend this company.

We used Sustainable Energy Engineering to install a solar and battery system in our home. We chose Sustainable Energy Engineering as they are a North East based company. Unlike other companies, they do an in person consultation (rather online only), this allowed them to assess the installation requirements at the property. We needed extra scaffolding as it was a three story property. The install took 2 days - the installers were polite, professional and tidy. The paperwork was provided shortly after installation- allowing us to register the system with our Energy provider who have already set up our exprt tariff. We wouldn't hesitate to reccommend Sustainable Energy Engineering.

A first class service from start to finish. It was important for us that the company we selected for our solar PV and battery installation were North East owned and operated and that they directly employed their workforce, so we were delighted to find Sustainable Energy Engineering. The quotation, survey and administration services pre and post installation were excellent, with all documentation provided and our queries answered promptly and professionally. Their installers arrived on time and were all local lads, friendly, polite, respectful to our home and thoroughly professional. We have no hesitation in recommending Sustainable Energy Engineering to anyone interested in a solar installation for their home or business.

Had my solar and battery system installed by Sustainable Energy Engineering just over a month ago and I've been really pleased with the whole thing. I got a few quotes from other companies but ended up going with them because they're local and were competitively priced. The system they fitted is exactly what I wanted. 12 x 500W panels (6 east-facing and 6-west facing), giving 6kWp, plus 11.52kWh of battery storage. I was especially happy that the inverter can be integrated natively within Home Assistant too - this gives me detailed monitoring, control and automation instead of relying on the standard app (which in fairness, is perfectly usable too). Since it was installed I've already generated over 700kWh - more than I can even try to use! Once Northern Powergrid sort the export MPAN I'll start getting paid for the excess too. The installers were friendly and polite, worked tidily around the house and garden, and left everything clean. Best of all, the scaffolding was down within a week with no chasing needed, and all the certificates and paperwork came through quickly afterwards. I'd seen solid reviews before choosing them and I'm happy to add my own. Fair price, good kit, and decent service. Would definitely recommend them if you're looking at solar or batteries.
