FREE Bird-Proofing Offer
Solar panels are a great addition to any home or business looking to lower their carbon footprint and reduce their energy bills. However, they can provide the perfect space for unwanted birds to nest under.
These unwanted visitors can cause damage to both the exterior and interior components of your solar panels, ultimately causing your system to loose its ability to generate power.
MAY OFFER - Confirm your Cambridgeshire solar panel installation with Optimum Electrics before the end of the month and receive FREE robust bird proofing system as part of your installation. This bird proofing system is usually worth £50 per panel!
Cambridge Solar Panel Installation Made Easy
Whether your roof is in full sun or partly shaded, we offer solar panel solutions to ensure you get a system which is bespoke to your home, lifestyle, and budget.
Most installations are completed within a day but some larger jobs will take a little longer. We can let you know once we know the size of the system you need.
We fully manage your installation in-house, from the paperwork and relevant applications, to the scaffolding and of course the installation of the system itself. So you don't need to worry about sourcing other trades or filling out technical documents.
How Do Solar Panels Work?
A standard solar panel consists of a layer of silicon cells, a metal frame, a glass casing, and various wiring to allow current to flow from the silicon cells. Silicon is a non-metal with conductive properties that allow it to absorb and convert sunlight into electricity. When light interacts with a silicon cell, it causes electrons to be set into motion, which initiates a flow of electric current. This is known as the “photovoltaic effect,” and it describes the general functionality of solar panel technology.
Here are the main steps for how solar panels work for your home:
-
Solar panels absorb the sun’s energy and convert it to DC electricity.
-
The solar inverter converts DC electricity from your solar modules to AC electricity, which is used by most home appliances.
-
Electricity flows through your home, powering electronic devices.
-
Excess electricity produced by solar panels is fed to the electric grid.

Solar Battery Storage Solutions in Cambridge
While having solar panels installed is a great step, having solar batteries really enables you and your home to get the most out of the energy generated from your solar panels.
Solar batteries store surplus solar energy that isn't being instantly used and can therefore be used later, for example overnight when the panels are not able to generate energy but you are still using appliances in your home. It's also great during the winter when daylight is limited.
Because of this, batteries help you reduce those energy bills even further by reducing your reliance on the grid and allowing you to be more energy independent.
Solar Panels & EV Chargers
Have you considered using solar energy to charge your electric vehicle? If you have or are considering purchasing solar panels or an electric vehicle, the two are a match made in sustainability heaven!
Charging your EV with solar energy is the smart way to charge, reducing your carbon footprint and leaving more money in your bank. Here at Optimum Electrics, our team of qualified electricians are qualified in both solar panel and EV charger installation, allowing you to benefit from both.
The average domestic solar PV system can generate 1 to 4 (kWp), enough to fully charge an EV with a battery capacity of 40 kWh in just over 8 hours.
It's important to remember that not all electric vehicle chargers are compatible with solar panels. Our friendly team can advise on the best options for your vehicle and home.
