11 In-Roof Solar Panels & Fox ESS All-in-One Battery, Redruth

Martin was having his roof retiled and wanted to make the house as close to cost-neutral as he could before he retires. Doing the solar at the same time meant the panels could go in-roof, sitting flush with the new tiles.

In their own words

“He doesn't fluff it up. He tells you what you need.”

Martin talks through fitting in-roof solar alongside a re-roof, the Fox ESS app and the support he gets from CCS.

The Challenge

The solar had to fit around the roofers' timetable, and Martin wanted a system sized to how the household actually uses electricity, not the biggest option on offer.

Our Solution

We worked in with the roofers and fitted 11 Aiko panels in a GSE in-roof system, set across the roof to catch the sun through the day, with a Fox ESS EVO all-in-one: an 8 kW inverter and 10 kWh battery in one unit. Gerome showed Martin which system would suit the household's use and checked he was happy before going ahead.

The Outcome

Martin follows the system in the Fox ESS app, which Gerome can also see. When one issue came up, Gerome replied and fixed it remotely within 20 minutes, with no visit needed. Martin says the app shows the house running 50 to 60% self-sufficient so far, before he has moved to a smart tariff.

System Installed

11 × Aiko 465 W panels (5.12 kWp) in a GSE in-roof system, Fox ESS EVO 10-8H all-in-one (8 kW inverter, 10 kWh battery)
