The Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) is a UK government grant that provides £7,500 toward the cost of installing an air source heat pump (ASHP).

To apply, you must: Install an MCS-certified heat pump system Have an EPC with no outstanding insulation recommendations Submit an application through an MCS-certified installer (we handle this for you!)

No, the grant must be applied for before installation through a registered installer.

A site survey assesses your property’s suitability for solar PV or a heat pump. It includes: Shading analysis (for solar PV) Heat loss calculations (for heat pumps) Best location for inverters, batteries, or heat pump units

An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rates your property’s energy efficiency. A pre-install EPC is required to apply for the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS). A post-install EPC may be needed to claim the grant.

A schematic is a technical drawing showing: Wiring diagrams for the system Component locations & grid connections Compliance with MCS & DNO requirements

A structural report assesses whether your roof can support solar panels. Some DNOs & MCS regulations requirea structural assessment before approval.

We provide expert guidance, system design, paperwork support, and DNO approvals for: Solar PV & battery storage Air source heat pumps (ASHP) Full compliance paperwork for MCS, Ofgem & government incentives Large-scale commercial renewable projects

Solar & heat pump installers who need help with DNO paperwork & MCS compliance Homeowners & businesses looking for the best renewable system options Developers & contractors needing expert guidance on grid applications & compliance

Our designs ensure optimal system performance and include: System layout & panel positioning (for PV) Heat loss calculations (for heat pumps) Inverter, battery & system efficiency recommendations Connection & compliance with DNO & MCS standards

Yes! We provide pre-installation designs to help you understand: How much energy the system will generate Potential savings & payback period Compliance with MCS & DNO requirements

We conduct heat loss calculations to determine if a heat pump can efficiently heat your home. Older homes may require insulation upgrades before installation.

A DNO (Distribution Network Operator) application is required when connecting renewable energy systems such as solar PV and heat pumps to the UK’s electrical grid. It ensures that the system meets safety and network capacity regulations.

G98: Covers small-scale microgeneration (e.g., solar PV systems up to 3.68kW per phase or 11.04kW three-phase). This is a fast-track approval process. G99: Required for larger installations (above 3.68kW per phase) and involves a more detailed engineering assessment by the DNO.

The processing time varies depending on the DNO and application type: G98 notifications (post-install) are typically processed within 10-15 working days. G99 applications can take up to 45 working days due to engineering review

Yes, but it’s a technical and time-consuming process. We handle all paperwork, design requirements, and communication with the DNO to ensure smooth approval.

An MCS handover pack is a mandatory compliance document required for all MCS-certified solar PV and heat pump installations. It includes: Risk Assessment & Method Statement Location of Components & Schematic Diagram MCS Certificate & Building Regulations Compliance Insurance-Backed Guarantee & Workmanship Warranty G98/G99 Application & Commissioning Details

Every MCS-certified installation requires a handover pack to comply with UK regulations and for customers to claim government incentives (like the Boiler Upgrade Scheme for heat pumps).

Yes! If your installer hasn’t provided a compliant handover pack, we can create a full MCS-compliant pack based on your system details.
