Put yourself in the driver's seat of your energy destiny

Store up the sun's energy for use at a later time with battery storage in Perth

Decrease the grid's use and increase energy savings

With the rising and falling cost of electricity, customers in Perth are seeking more efficient ways to use their energy. While producing solar power is a great first move, if the energy isn't stored, a lot of it could be wasted when it is created.

Solar battery storage is a method for storing extra energy generated by your solar panels and utilizing it as needed. Your battery stores energy for future use in the evenings, during high-energy demand times, or when the sun isn't producing as much. Your battery also stores excess energy for later use when solar energy production is less or during high-energy demand periods.

Solar Battery Storage Systems are provided and installed throughout Perth by Scottish Energy Saving, and they are customised to suit the client's requirements. We offer solutions tailored to your property's energy needs to maximize the use of renewable energy and minimize your energy expenditures. A professionally installed battery system will give you greater efficiency, flexibility, and energy independence.

Solar and battery system designed and installed by SES, working perfectly. Very tidy installation carried out professionally.

Key Benefits of Solar Battery Storage in Perth

More than storage – a smarter way to manage electricity

Here are some of the many advantages of solar battery storage systems for Perth homes and businesses:

Store the excess solar power for future use
Improve usage of grid power through reduced dependence, and minimize the use of grid power
Lower overall electricity expenditure
Improve energy management and efficiency
Enhance energy security and mitigate rising energy costs
Long life and reliable performance

Apart from financial benefits, battery storage offers additional flexibility with the timing and ways in which electricity is consumed. That translates to increased power usage on site and maximizes the return on your investment in renewable energy.

We have had our six infra red panels for about seven years. We had four old storage heaters, which we inherited when we bought the house. They were totally inadequate for the property in the northern highlands. We decided we had to replace them but what with. Searches via the tinternet came up with the infra red alternative. We found Scottish Energy Saving as being a supplier of panels in Edinburgh Scotland. We arranged a home visit and Chris Taylor arrived to do the survey. He explained everything to us and answered all our questions. We haven't looked back since. Going from four storage heaters to six panels has not been more expensive with each panel having its own thermostat, they are constantly turning on and off through out the day.  Visitors always ask what sort of heating do we have, its lovely and warm in here. We have three mirror panels and three white plain panels. All very thin and blend into the back ground. A very helpful and good company to deal with. We will happily use them again.  Thank you.

Owner's reply
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Ben. We’re delighted Chris’s survey and explanations made the switch from your old storage heaters easy and that the six infrared panels with individual thermostats have kept your home warm, efficient, and visually unobtrusive. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to helping you again.

•	What made you look into infrared heating for the church?
o	Our ageing gas central heating in our beautiful A Listed church building was on its last legs and failed to heat the space adequately, costing a fortune in the process.
•	Why did you choose Scottish Energy Saving?
o	We had researched a number of different radiant solutions, but had a lot of false starts where potential suppliers seemed interested but then disappeared, not returning calls, leaving us frustrated and not knowing why. Scottish Energy Saving was supportive from the start, sometimes overly so, before we were quite ready. They maintained steady contact over several months until we had the various permissions and finance in place to start the project.
•	How did you find the overall experience with our teams?
o	All of the people we encountered were very personable and worked tirelessly. My only criticism was that the installation electricians were not consistent, so teams changed and had to acquaint themselves with the building and its nuances. This resulted in some delay with some phases of the installation.
•	What stood out most during the installation?
o	The willingness to work with the restrictions and challenges that our building presented while remaining sympathetic to and respectful of its purpose.
•	How is the system performing in the space so far?
o	The 9 x 3.6kW and 6 x 600W infrared radiant system is performing well and gives us much more flexibility and comfort than many thought possible. It has proven to be very popular, even from the trial stages, encouraging us to press on towards the full installation. It has already saved hundreds of pounds in the remaining gas system, which is currently required for fabric protection, as it has reduced the necessity of large pre-heat times. We do pre-heat the radiant heating for maximum comfort, but only up to 4 hours – the gas system would be pre-heated up to 24 hours and beyond. In short, we can create a comfortable space using around 5 hours-worth of energy that would previously have required up to 24 hours. We also don’t need to heat the whole space as the heaters are angled to target seated areas and they can be individually programmed and scheduled.
•	Would you recommend us to other organisations?
o	I would recommend Scottish Energy Saving as I believe that they install quality products to a good standard. They have learned a lot from the complexity and demands of our historic and architecturally significant church building, and now include a detailed survey as part of their costings to help avoid some of the difficulties that we encountered. Our permissions process meant that we had to phase the installation, which no-doubt was a challenge to achieving continuity of the installation team, but all the staff who attended were flexible, hard working and tidy. The issues encountered were resolved pretty quickly to our satisfaction. A challenging but ultimately successful project, delivering a sensitive, flexible, efficient and effective heating system in a complex environment.

Owner's reply
Thank you for this thorough and thoughtful review — we’re delighted the system is delivering the comfort, flexibility and cost savings you needed. I’m sorry for the disruption caused by changing electrician teams during the phased works and appreciate your patience while we resolved those issues. We now include a detailed survey in our costings and are working to improve continuity of installation teams on complex, phased projects. Thank you for recommending Scottish Energy Saving and for trusting us with your historic church.

It was time to replace my 20 year old boiler,  at the same time I  was also looking for a solar / battery / grid powered hot water system to run my domestic water for washing and showering, a call from Chris at SES not only saved me money by purchaseing a Sunamp battery system and a smaller 15kw boiler, Chris also arranged for a plumber and a local electrician,  in my eyes the fitment and pipework were a work of art, being a retired engineer I appreciated the time that was taken by Davie and his apprentice to install the units also working a 12 hour shift to ensure we had hot water and gas that day,  the electrician was also very professional,  now the systems are up and running I am looking forward to reduced utility bills. I would most definitely recommend Scottish Energy Saving and more than happy to respond to any questions, well done Chris and his team.

It's a good moment to shout out Chris Taylor and Scottish Energy Saving who installed the 12 solar panels and batteries which power the kitchen and workshop at our Grow West Fife kitchen and workshop. Today our batteries are full, we're generating more than we're using and exporting power to the Grid. We weren't the easiest customer but our system is working brilliantly and we're very grateful to Chris and colleagues for their continuing support. 🙌🙌🙌

Owner's reply
Thank you for your wonderful feedback, Dean! We're thrilled to hear that your solar system is performing so well and that you're successfully exporting power to the grid.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Welcome had this company in a few years ago to give us a complete new heating system. These were thin panels that could go on your walls or ceilings and, at that time they came in 3 finishings gloss black glass, white plastic or mirrored glass. They can be controlled individually or from 1 base station.
When the guys came to install the system they were extremely polite, hard working and were very tidy, hoovering up every last spec of dust.
I would highly recommend this company for anything energy saving.

Owner's reply
Thank you, Robert, for the wonderful review and for recommending us. We're delighted the panels and controls met your needs and that our installers were polite, hardworking, and left everything tidy; we'll pass your compliments along to the team.

Our boiler became unmaintainable and we were getting increasingly unhappy with our old kerosene fueled system before it finally gave up.  We wanted a clean, efficient heating solution.  The team were efficient and thoughtful guys, who worked hard to get the heating working as soon as possible.  The new heat pump works perfectly, the house is a nice even temperature.  And it looks amazing, adding substantially to the value of the house.  10/10

Thank you so much for the fantastic 10/10 review, Robin. We’re thrilled the new heat pump is keeping your home evenly heated and that the team could get everything working quickly and thoughtfully.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. SES have fitted infrared heaters at your church and it is finally warm!!.  Before then we had inadequate heating and a very cold church. Chris and the team were all extremely professional, and quick to install the heating system.  They  worked with us to determine the best place for the heaters and, when there was a slight issue after installation, they replied to our call quickly and returned immediately to rectify.  The new heating means that we can now fully utilise the building.  We would definitely recommend SES.

Owner's reply
Thank you for your kind review. We’re delighted the infrared heaters have made the church warm and fully usable and that Chris and the team were professional and quick with installation.

The working principle of solar battery storage

The intelligent use of energy for everyday efficiency

A solar battery can store energy generated by your solar PV system during the day when the electricity is not needed. Unused energy is stored in the battery rather than exported at the time it is generated, which it will then use later when less solar power is being generated, or more is being used by the household.

For instance, when energy demands in the evening are higher, the electricity produced in the afternoon can be stored for use in the evening. This decreases the electricity being used from the grid and increases overall energy efficiency.

All of Scottish Energy Saving battery storage platforms in Perth are carefully designed to be used with your solar PV system. We combine smart storage solutions with smart energy management to optimise energy self-consumption and boost long-term savings.

Today's monitoring system can, too, provide visibility and control over your property's electricity usage by tracking performance and understanding how the electricity is being used.

o	The willingness to work with the restrictions and challenges that our building presented while remaining sympathetic to and respectful of its purpose.
•	How is the system performing in the space so far?
o	The 9 x 3.6kW and 6 x 600W infrared radiant system is performing well and gives us much more flexibility and comfort than many thought possible. It has proven to be very popular, even from the trial stages, encouraging us to press on towards the full installation. It has already saved hundreds of pounds in the remaining gas system, which is currently required for fabric protection, as it has reduced the necessity of large pre-heat times. We do pre-heat the radiant heating for maximum comfort, but only up to 4 hours – the gas system would be pre-heated up to 24 hours and beyond. In short, we can create a comfortable space using around 5 hours-worth of energy that would previously have required up to 24 hours. We also don’t need to heat the whole space as the heaters are angled to target seated areas and they can be individually programmed and scheduled.
•	Would you recommend us to other organisations?
o	I would recommend Scottish Energy Saving as I believe that they install quality products to a good standard. They have learned a lot from the complexity and demands of our historic and architecturally significant church building, and now include a detailed survey as part of their costings to help avoid some of the difficulties that we encountered. Our permissions process meant that we had to phase the installation, which no-doubt was a challenge to achieving continuity of the installation team, but all the staff who attended were flexible, hard working and tidy. The issues encountered were resolved pretty quickly to our satisfaction. A challenging but ultimately successful project, delivering a sensitive, flexible, efficient and effective heating system in a complex environment.

Owner's reply
Thank you for this thorough and thoughtful review — we’re delighted the system is delivering the comfort, flexibility and cost savings you needed. I’m sorry for the disruption caused by changing electrician teams during the phased works and appreciate your patience while we resolved those issues. We now include a detailed survey in our costings and are working to improve continuity of installation teams on complex, phased projects. Thank you for recommending Scottish Energy Saving and for trusting us with your historic church.

It was time to replace my 20 year old boiler,  at the same time I  was also looking for a solar / battery / grid powered hot water system to run my domestic water for washing and showering, a call from Chris at SES not only saved me money by purchaseing a Sunamp battery system and a smaller 15kw boiler, Chris also arranged for a plumber and a local electrician,  in my eyes the fitment and pipework were a work of art, being a retired engineer I appreciated the time that was taken by Davie and his apprentice to install the units also working a 12 hour shift to ensure we had hot water and gas that day,  the electrician was also very professional,  now the systems are up and running I am looking forward to reduced utility bills. I would most definitely recommend Scottish Energy Saving and more than happy to respond to any questions, well done Chris and his team.

It's a good moment to shout out Chris Taylor and Scottish Energy Saving who installed the 12 solar panels and batteries which power the kitchen and workshop at our Grow West Fife kitchen and workshop. Today our batteries are full, we're generating more than we're using and exporting power to the Grid. We weren't the easiest customer but our system is working brilliantly and we're very grateful to Chris and colleagues for their continuing support. 🙌🙌🙌

Owner's reply
Thank you for your wonderful feedback, Dean! We're thrilled to hear that your solar system is performing so well and that you're successfully exporting power to the grid.

I called Scottish Energy to discuss why sort of SAHP would best meet my needs. The team were extremely helpful and from order to installation was only 4 with Christmas in between. The installation team were professional and did a great job fitting the unit into a tight space. We are extremely happy with the end result. Great job, Well done. Thanks to all at Scottish Energy. Highly recommended!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  We have had a Solar Assisted Heat Pump and Battery Storage installed by Scottish Energy Saving.  It has been a very straightforward process.  Chris explained the systems and our options very clearly; he is pleasant, courteous, and very easy to work with.  The electricians, on both occasions, were excellent - their work is of the highest standard, and they were extremely careful and courteous whilst working in our house.  We are delighted with the results!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Welcome had this company in a few years ago to give us a complete new heating system. These were thin panels that could go on your walls or ceilings and, at that time they came in 3 finishings gloss black glass, white plastic or mirrored glass. They can be controlled individually or from 1 base station.
When the guys came to install the system they were extremely polite, hard working and were very tidy, hoovering up every last spec of dust.
I would highly recommend this company for anything energy saving.

Owner's reply
Thank you, Robert, for the wonderful review and for recommending us. We're delighted the panels and controls met your needs and that our installers were polite, hardworking, and left everything tidy; we'll pass your compliments along to the team. If you need any support or want to expand your energy-saving solutions, please contact us anytime.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Our boiler became unmaintainable and we were getting increasingly unhappy with our old kerosene fueled system before it finally gave up.  We wanted a clean, efficient heating solution.  The team were efficient and thoughtful guys, who worked hard to get the heating working as soon as possible.  The new heat pump works perfectly, the house is a nice even temperature.  And it looks amazing, adding substantially to the value of the house.  10/10

Owner's reply
Thank you so much for the fantastic 10/10 review, Robin. We’re thrilled the new heat pump is keeping your home evenly heated and that the team could get everything working quickly and thoughtfully. It’s great to hear the installation looks amazing and has added value to your house. We appreciate you trusting us with the job.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  SES have fitted infrared heaters at your church and it is finally warm!!.  Before then we had inadequate heating and a very cold church. Chris and the team were all extremely professional, and quick to install the heating system.  They  worked with us to determine the best place for the heaters and, when there was a slight issue after installation, they replied to our call quickly and returned immediately to rectify.  The new heating means that we can now fully utilise the building.  We would definitely recommend SES.

Owner's reply
Thank you for your kind review. We’re delighted the infrared heaters have made the church warm and fully usable and that Chris and the team were professional and quick with installation. I’m glad we could work with you on heater placement and respond promptly to fix the post-install issue. Your recommendation means a great deal to us.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  In 2020 I moved into a house with no gas supply. The house had electric storage heaters and an immersion heater. Despite being on an economy 7 electric supply the bills were horrendous with “heat” only being available from 2330 to 0730 hrs which is not when it is required.
SES installed a SAHP system for the hot water and infra red heating panels controlled with a Lightwave system.
The hot water bills came tumbling down and I now heat the house when I want to, rather than to suit Scottish Power.
The heat pump gave me access to Octopus Cosy which gave further savings.
Further savings were gained by installing solar panels and a battery storage system which meant I did not pay for electricity for six months spring to autumn.
Chris at SES was very knowledgeable and helpful.

Owner's reply
Thank you for your fantastic review, Stephen! We're thrilled to hear that the installation of the SAHP system and heating panels has transformed your home's heating efficiency and significantly lowered your bills. It's great to know that you found value in our services and Chris's expertise. Your feedback on the additional savings from the solar panels and battery storage is invaluable. We appreciate your support and are glad to have made a positive impact on your home.
