MCS Certified Solar Panel Installers in Ipswich
As MCS certified solar installers based right here in Ipswich, ELECSI has installed over 200 solar PV systems across the town. From the south-facing roofs of Rushmere and Kesgrave to the period properties near Christchurch Park, we understand Ipswich's diverse housing stock and how to maximise solar generation on every property type.
Ipswich receives 1,500–1,600 peak sun hours per year, making solar highly effective. Modern estates in Sproughton and Bramford have excellent solar potential with large south-facing gardens, while older properties in the town centre can benefit from smaller 2–3kW systems or ground-mounted arrays. We offer free surveys across all IP postcodes and can usually assess your property within 48 hours.

Why Install Solar PV in Ipswich?
Excellent Solar Irradiance
Ipswich averages 1,500+ peak sun hours annually. South-facing roofs in Kesgrave and Rushmere receive optimal exposure, while east-west orientations still deliver strong generation.
Rising Energy Bills
With electricity prices at record highs, a 4kW solar system in Ipswich saves £850–£1,100 per year. Battery storage increases this to £1,200–£1,500 annually.
Smart Export Guarantee
Export surplus solar through SEG payments. Most Ipswich households generate more than they use during summer months — turning excess into income.
Increase Property Value
Solar panels add 4% to property value on average. In competitive Ipswich postcodes like IP4 and IP5, solar-ready homes sell faster and command premium prices.
EV Charging Integration
Combine solar with a smart EV charger and charge your car for free during the day. Perfect for Ipswich commuters with electric vehicles.
