Engineering Design & Consultancy

Engineering-Led Design for Independent Power

A reliable power system begins long before the first panel goes up — it begins with engineering. With 35 years of expertise, we provide specialist design and consultancy for architects, developers, contractors and homeowners who need power in challenging or remote locations. We don't guess. We calculate


Why Professional Design Matters


Off-the-shelf kits often fail because they aren't matched to your site or to how you actually use energy — a system designed for the south of England won't behave the same way in the Scottish Highlands. We bridge the gap between what you need and the realities of your site and the UK climate, so the system delivers genuine autonomy, even in the depths of winter.


Our Consultancy Services


  1. Feasibility Studies & Site Surveys — Before you commit, we assess whether a scheme is viable: solar, wind and hydro resource, shading, site constraints and realistic generation. You get an honest verdict — including when the numbers don't stack up.
  2. Load Analysis & Profiling — Understanding how you use energy matters as much as how you generate it. We build a realistic load profile and peak demand, so generation and storage are sized correctly — no under-performing system, and no paying for oversized kit.
  3. System Design & Integration — Full technical design of off-grid, backup and hybrid systems, combining solar, wind, hydro, hydrogen and storage into one coherent, controlled system engineered for your site.
  4. Battery Storage & BESS Engineering — Design and integration of battery storage from domestic to commercial scale, independent of any single manufacturer, with protection and control engineered for the actual application.
  5. Fault Investigation & Diagnostics — When a system misbehaves — nuisance tripping, under-performance, protection that won't coordinate — we find the root cause. Specialist work that few installers offer, and often why contractors call us in
  6. Technical Documentation & Compliance — The design documentation your project needs to satisfy building control, planning and grid connection — produced to the relevant standards so it stands up to inspection and audit.


Standards We Work To


We design and certify to the current standards: BS 7671:2018+A2:2022 (18th Edition); G98 / G99 / G100 for grid connection and export limitation; MCS — MIS 3002 and MIS 3012 for solar PV and battery storage; and PAS 63100 for battery storage in dwellings.


How We Work


Design and feasibility are a defined engineering engagement — clear scope, clear deliverables, and documentation you own and can build from. It's professional engineering, not a free quote — which includes telling you honestly when a scheme doesn't work.


Who We Work With


  • Architects & developers — specialist engineering support for sustainable and off-grid building projects.
  • Contractors & principal contractors — the specialist resource brought in on complex or non-standard power systems.
  • Commercial & industrial clients — remote telecommunications, agricultural sites, eco-tourism lodges and beyond.
  • Residential self-builders — eco-homes and off-grid retreats designed to perform year-round.
