Local MCS (NIC-1542) solar & battery installation in Nuneaton and Bedworth

Solar City is an MCS certified (NIC-1542) solar and battery installer based in Tyseley, Birmingham, installing in Nuneaton and Bedworth, about 20 miles from our depot. Our depot is located about 20 miles north-east via the M6 and A444 corridor. From our Tyseley depot in Birmingham (B11 2BA), our engineers travel straight out via the M6/M42 and A444 to Weddington, St Nicolas Park, Whitestone, Horeston Grange, Attleborough, Stockingford, Camp Hill, Galley Common, Hartshill, Bulkington and Bedworth.

Chris Hammond has worked in solar since 2002. D J Hammond Electrical Contractors Ltd (company number 05338112) carried out its first solar installs in 2005, and the Solar City brand launched in 2010. Because we never use doorstep salespeople or sub-contracted installation gangs, you deal directly with the qualified electricians and roofers who design, survey and fit your system.

Nuneaton and Bedworth is one of our most active Warwickshire installation areas, with four published case studies across CV10 and CV11 alone (#213, #290, #341 and #356). Housing ranges from modern detached estates around Weddington, St Nicolas Park, Horeston Grange and Whitestone to established semi-detached and terraced homes along Coventry Road, Norman Avenue, Alexander Street and Mallard Avenue.

Many CV10 and CV11 properties have clean pitched roofs where 6 to 10 high-efficiency 465W AIKO all-black modules (2.79 kWp to 4.65 kWp) fit on a single elevation, paired with a Fox ESS H1-3.0 or H1-3.7 hybrid inverter and a 5.18 kWh Fox ESS EP6 Plus battery.

Where roofs are split across front/rear or main/extension elevations, our dual-MPPT string and hybrid inverters allow independent string tracking on two roof faces without losing yield.
