Overview
Successful Solar Fitting in Bramhall, Cheshire
The installation required careful planning to integrate the battery wall system with the homeowner’s existing solar setup and overall electrical infrastructure. Our team carried out a detailed assessment of energy usage patterns, solar generation potential, and backup requirements to ensure the new Tesla Powerwall delivered maximum benefit for this Bramhall, Cheshire property.
By optimising the connection between the solar array and the battery wall, we enabled the homeowner to store more of their self‑generated solar energy and use it during peak demand, reducing reliance on the grid and improving long‑term efficiency. This level of planning was essential for achieving a smooth, future‑proof upgrade that supports both sustainability and energy independence.
Throughout the project, the Renewable Planet team guided the homeowner through every stage — clearly, patiently, and without rushing — ensuring they understood how the system works and how to get the most from their solar and battery storage setup. From initial consultation to final commissioning, we focused on delivering a reliable, high‑performance upgrade that enhances resilience and supports a greener future for this Bramhall home.

Installed Technologies
| In-Roof Solar PV System | The homeowner chose an in‑roof solar array to achieve a clean, modern look that blends seamlessly into the roofline. The system was designed around JA Solar 435W all‑black panels, offering strong performance and long‑term reliability. Key components: – JA Solar panels with 12‑year product and 25‑year performance warranties – Solis inverter with a 10‑year warranty – GSE in‑roof mounting for a flush, integrated finish – Generation meter for accurate monitoring – Full installation, MCS certification and DNO approval The result is a sleek, high‑performing solar system that enhances both the home’s appearance and its energy efficiency. |
| Tesla Powerwall System | To maximise the value of the solar installation, the homeowner added a Tesla Powerwall 3, providing energy storage and whole‑home backup capability. The system includes: – 13.5kWh Tesla Powerwall 3 – Tesla Backup Gateway – Built‑in inverter for a compact footprint – Full commissioning, certification and DNO approval The Powerwall allows the home to store excess solar energy, use cheaper off‑peak electricity and maintain power during outages — creating a smarter, more resilient energy setup. |
| Roofing Works Completed Alongside Solar | Because the existing roof required upgrading, Renewable Planet carried out all roofing works in parallel with the solar installation — ensuring perfect alignment and a consistent finish. The roofing package included: – Removal of all existing tiles, battens, felt and ridge tiles -Installation of Vista 162 breathable membrane and treated battens – Fitting of Tapco lightweight slates around the solar array and across the rear elevation – Installation of two Velux GGL conservation windows with full timber framing – New Marley clay ridge tiles fixed using a dry‑ridge system – This created a refreshed, durable roof structure designed to last for decades. |
