Brilliant from start to finish, we've just had 16 panels installed on our garage and we could not fault Naked Solar.
Zach was our first contact with Naked Solar and he took us through the options we had. He discussed what our views were on technology, length of guarantees we would be looking for and what it is we actually wanted to use solar for - we had time to think / debate and from that he outlined options and we then made a decision in our timescales.
We then had a site visit and Naked Solar came up with a detailed plan and refined cost once the exact details were worked out such as cable lengths / routes within the house etc. We discussed various options and came up with the one which would work best.
Dates were sent for the installation and we had conformation on the scaffolding installation dates. The engineers arrived when planned, as did the scaffolding guys. Everyone knew the plan and they got on with it. All the engineers / electricians were good and a particular shout out goes to Rhys who did most of the electrical work. Frankly, I was dreading some sort of upheaval with all the wiring going in and it was painless. He even arranged the order of what he was going to fit around us.
He explained the technology and got us logged in / set up and we were eagerly waiting for sunrise the next day to see the solar in action. Throughout they were keen to ensure that we were happy with what they were doing and we were and remain so.

Very impressed with the whole Naked Solar team. An extremely professional organisation from the face to face Teams discussions to the technical advisors on a pergola structure being created just to carry solar panels. Nobody was pushy or trying to steer us towards a specific product, they worked with us establishing a budget and advised on a range of ideas which would work for our individual project.

I had naked solar install 16 panels with solar skirt and 2 Tesla power wall 3 batteries. After install I asked about adding 4 more panels. They was more than happy to accommodate me and was installed really fast and work was done to a very high standard. I would recommend naked to anyone looking for solar install and battery installs very professional and kept me updated on everything that was happening.

You can't fault this company, nothing is too much trouble. Everything is explained thoroughly and whoever you deal with is polite and helpful. From everyone involved ,scaffolders/solar installers/electricians/office staff ,they are all so helpful and polite. They also tidy up each day. If we could we would give 10stars! Would definitely recommend this company.

We looked around at various companies before using naked and we are very happy we chose them.
Very local to us which is obviously great. Price wise comparable to everyone else but the service levels from initial calls to information and installation were excellent. Everyone we spoke to or met at the house were polite, professional, friendly, knowledgeable and just generally seemed to care about what they were doing.
Our roof provided some difficulties for them but they got it done, overcame problems and finished to a high standard.
Thanks so much to you all.

Highly recommended. Did a really professional over the air diagnostic job on a faulty Solar Edge installation, successfully transferred the ownership of the system, fixed the problem and arranged for the Solar Edge to cover the cost via their warranty. Brilliant service, and they're local. 100% recommend.

🌞 **Exceptional Service from Naked Solar – Highly Recommended!**
We recently had solar panels installed by Naked Solar while undergoing a roof replacement, and we couldn’t be more impressed with the entire experience. From start to finish, Naked Solar demonstrated professionalism, flexibility, and outstanding customer care.
One of the standout aspects was their willingness to coordinate directly with our roofing company. This ensured the scaffolding met both parties’ needs, streamlining the process and saving us time and hassle. Their proactive communication made a potentially complex project feel effortless.
Now that the system is up and running, we’re thrilled to be enjoying complete self-sufficiency with our electricity. While registration with the grid takes a few weeks (so we can sell surplus energy), Naked Solar guided us through every step. The only minor downside is the standing charges, but they will reduce once we switch to a new Octopus contract post-registration.
The installation team were friendly, respectful, and kept us informed throughout. On the admin side, communication was timely and clear, and everyone we dealt with was incredibly knowledgeable.
If you’re considering solar, we wholeheartedly recommend Naked Solar. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions—I'm happy to share more about our experience!

We’ve just had our solar panels installed by Naked Solar and the whole experience has been excellent. From start to finish everything was handled so smoothly. The team were professional, friendly and clearly cared about the details — they even cleaned out our gutters while they were up there, which was such a thoughtful touch. The scaffolders were polite and respectful, and the installation itself was neat and tidy.
The panels are already performing brilliantly and we’ve seen huge savings on our bills. It’s a great feeling to be generating so much of our own clean energy and to know the system is working exactly as promised.
Naked Solar have been fantastic, and we’re more than happy to recommend them to anyone considering solar.

Naked Solar did a really professional job. They talked us through the options and helped us select the right equipment. The panels look sleek on the roof and they hid the wiring well. On sunny days we are completely self sufficient and our electricity bill is £0, plus we can sell our excess energy to the grid. Fantastic company from start to finish.

Naked Solar have just increased the capacity of my solar PV system to 25kW. The process was an absolute pleasure from beginning to end. Communication at all stages has been prompt and the can-do attitude of their admin and sparkies was so refreshing!
My only regret is with myself - for not getting them to do the initial PV installation in the first place! In future, if I need ANY related work to be done, Naked Solar will be my first choice.

I was going to change my inverter as the one I had wasn’t compatible with an energy company I am with , after talking to Kieran all I had to do was buy a new Wi-Fi dongle and set it up ( yet to do) their advice has potential saved me in excess of £1000 , will definitely be going back for all my solar needs in the future, cannot speak highly enough of naked solar

Very pleased with my naked solar experience. Ollie was very helpful in the early stages of going through designs and pricing up several different quotes as well as being a helpful contact for updates throughout. Ben provided the design exactly as I wanted tailored to my needs. On the day of install the roofers Josh and Nathan were punctual and polite and happy to go about their work. Tom the electrician was also very polite and helpful going through the installation. I have no doubt that the install team took pride in their work. All the people I have dealt with during this process have been great and I would definitely recommend naked solar.

Absolutely brilliant! We cannot recommend this company highly enough! Throughout our whole experience, from initial enquiries to installation, we received first class customer service. Nothing was too much trouble; questions were answered with enthusiasm and a high level of product knowledge. Their commitment to positive environmental impact, coupled with the provision of excellent products and service, was exceptional. The installation team were amazing and took great care to make sure that the job was done perfectly and were a pleasure to have in our home. Above all, it was so refreshing to work with a team of people who clearly love their job, the company that they work for and care about the product they are selling - what a great team! Many thanks Naked Solar!

We chose Naked Solar to install our PV panels and battery on the day that we met the company as they impressed us so much. From the outset, Kristie worked with us and our designer Ben to work out the best package for us, including several redesigns so that we could compare the differences. We are heavily reliant on electricity in our home and have two EVs to charge so the right combination of PVs and battery was crucial. We never felt rushed, and questions were answered quickly during, and after, the design phase. All of this was managed exceptionally well by Kristie. The overall quality of workmanship by the installation team was exceptional. Great care was taken to install the system with the least damage/disruption at the house. The controls were installed in our utility room that had been recently decorated and how Rhys, our electrician on the install, managed to do the work without a single mark on the walls was remarkable. Similarly, the team of installers, Carlos, Zach and Harry managed to cause minimal disruption, even in the immediate aftermath of Storm Darragh, to carry out a fantastic job. Thank you all for your patience and respect shown to us throughout the planning and installation. We would be very happy to recommend, without reservation, Naked Solar and wish you great success in the future.

I cannot recommend Naked Solar enough. They are a great team of professionals, none of whom are pushy at any point in the process. I was on the fence with installing panels and a battery, had no idea about the pros and cons, options available etc. Over a period of months (yes I took quite a while to think on it!) Kieran & Jack handled every query of mine, educated me, projected different scenario outcomes for me.
Eventually I landed on a package that I felt was right for me and my home, at which point the wheels were set in motion. The scaffolding went up, the scaffolders were punctual and efficient, then a few days later the installation took place. It took just less than 2 days for 10 panels and a battery to be fitted. It was working immediately and the guys showed me how to use the app to monitor and control the settings. I'm immensely pleased with the products and the standard of installation.
If I have any constructive feedback it would simply be that there was some confusion over whether a trench would be needed between the house and the garage. From what the Naked Solar electrician said to me when he arrived, it would always have been needed - so a brief call between the head office and the electrician would most likely have solidified that sooner in the process for me. As I needed to dig the trench, it would have been ideal to know a bit sooner that it would definitely be needed.
I am a big fan of this firm and would recommend them to anyone in the South West looking into Solar technologies.

Naked solar were great to deal with. Very personal response to all enquiries, and lots of details provided regarding the cost/benefit over time of the solar installation they proposed for us. I was impressed at how bespoke the assessment of solar potential for our property they provided was at the quote stage. Would highly recommend them.

My experience of Naked Solar was outstanding from beginning to end.
Everything was completed to a very high standard and the work ethic of everyone involved was second to none.
Particular thanks must go to Jake who discussed the initial options with me and was very patient while I got my head around the multiple choices available to me.
On the day of installation Carlos and Gary arrived on time and completed the roof installation in an efficient and considerate manner. The two electricians, Gary and Tom were both exceptional ensuring that all their work met my expectations and that everything was as I wished.
Without exception they were all very polite and friendly and cleared everything up after themselves.
I have no hesitation in recommending Naked Solar as a Company as their attention to detail and the care of their employees is second to none.
Thank you all for your help and I look forward to having you work on my house again when I expand the system.
Kind regards,
Nigel Flitton

Quite simply, the best company I’ve ever worked with. The pre-sales service, communication, installation, and electricians were all excellent from start to finish. Nothing was ever a problem and the whole system was installed perfectly within the timescales discussed. The whole system is working well, and we are already discussing future options. Nice work and a great team, thank you very much.

How much do Solar Panles cost in Cornwall?
The honest answer is that there isn’t a single, fixed price. The cost of a fully installed solar PV system is an investment that is highly dependent on your specific property and your personal energy goals.
We treat every installation as a unique design project, as what works best for your neighbour might not be the optimal solution for you.
How much can I save with Solar in Cornwall?
Switching to solar energy offers one of the most substantial and predictable ways to reduce your household outgoings. While your specific savings will depend on your energy consumption, the size of your system, and whether you include a battery, the potential for savings in a sunny region like Cornwallis significant.
On average, Naked Solar customers who installed systems in 2025 saw a massive reduction of approximately 65% on their annual energy bills.
Do Solar panels work in Cornwall’s weather?
Yes, solar panels work very well in Cornwall’s weather, making it one of the best locations in the UK for solar energy. This is because panels operate on light (photons) rather than heat, and the region receives some of the highest levels of solar irradiation in the country.
Even on cloudy days, panels capture diffused daylight to generate electricity, and the temperate maritime climate prevents overheating, which actually allows the panels to run at near-optimal efficiency more consistently throughout the year.
