sonnenBatterie works with any PV system – is it the next Tesla?

Someone better tell Elon Musk to take a look over his shoulder. The energy storage market is hotting up and we’re seeing more and more products to rival Musk’s ground-breaking Tesla Powerwall. Cornwall Solar Panels travelled to Germany to investigate what we’d heard could be a market-leading product, the sonnenBatterie. And we weren’t disappointed.

They are leaders of Germany’s more mature storage market by a huge margin and they have a stong company ethic, demonstrated by their Sonnen Community Scheme. We’re really excited that we’re now bringing their superb range to the UK – especially as it will suit anyone with a Solar PV installation.

Tony Sampson - Managing Director

Ever since his first Solar PV installation in 2006, Tony has been passionate about the difference Solar can make to people’s lives and the planet. With the backing of 9 years engineering in the RAF, running his own B&B and 7 years of people management (with excellent training) at Royal Mail, Tony had the skills and experience needed to set up a business in the Solar Industry. Since obtaining MCS accreditation in 2010, Naked Solar has been focused on improving solar for everyone. Going beyond just driving the business, Tony has been an active member of Solar Energy UK to help improve the industry as a whole. He is a member of the SEUK Standards & Certification Steering Group, sits on the MCS Installer Forum to play an active part in guiding the industry to be better for all Solar Owners.

As Naked Solar opens more and more Hubs across the UK, the team is also growing and many other members of the Naked Solar Team are involved in various industry body committees, working groups and forums.

Solar is a very young industry that looks simpler than it is. Naked Solar are keen to help any newcomers understand the pitfalls and difficulties to improve solar for everyone. That’s why, in 2013 we stated our purpose over profit is to Improve Faith in the Solar Industry.
