🔋 Maximise your home energy system with solar battery storage 🔋

Solar panels are very efficient at generating energy for your home, but they become even more effective when paired with a solar battery.

Solar battery storage stores the electricity generated by your solar panels, to be used whenever you’re ready. That means your solar panels generate energy during the day, keeping your home warm overnight, generating hot water, or letting you charge your electric vehicle, for example. Any surplus energy can be exported back to the grid, allowing you to make money from your home energy system.

Inspired by oor auld pal Rabbie Burns, here's our Ode tae the Gas Boiler 😜

In Scotland's chilly, misty land,
Whar winters grasp wie icy hand,
There dwells a heart, both bold and true,
It's in yir home, a trusty crew.

A gas boiler, steadfast, strong,
It battles frost the whole night long,
With flames that dance in warming grace,
It brings a smile tae every face.

Amidst the hills and rugged glens,
It keeps the cauld at bay, my friends,
A loyal servant, tried and tested,
In Scotland's clime, it's truly bested.

Its fiery heart, a beacon bright,
Dispelling darkness wie its light,
Through sleet and snow, it stands its ground,
In every Scottish hame, it's found.

So raise a cheer, for this device,
That warms oor hearts, and adds some spice,
Tae cozy nights by the fireside,
Oor faithful gas boiler, oor pride.

In Scotland's land, whar winters bite,
It keeps us warm throughout the night,
A gas boiler, in every home,
A Scottish hearth, where love's grown.
